* commit '5aee5213190f145b5a734f5dc76a67c82f7d6b82':
emoved .gitattributes and .gitignore, as the manual migration did not create them. Corrected bbrelease script to create new release version with revision hash.
Translate svn commands to git commands for chkmanifest and bbrelease scripts with source in git repository. Removed the -p option from the command to run autogen.sh. It interfered with running chkmanifest on a machine with the correct autotools versions but without access to /usr/hdf/bin/AUTOTOOLS. The autogen.sh script says the option is for HDF group use only and is likely to be removed. The same effect can be achieved by adding /usr/hdf/bin/AUTOTOOLS to the beginning of PATH.
