commit b4a08ecfd34e703bd846f1e85b4e2a94a34b16d9

    maint: make silent builds the default
    
    The user still has full control over verbosity levels, both setting
    their per-project defaults at configure time (or even in a config.site
    file), as well as a per-run override. But these days, most projects
    are defaulting to silent rules without user intervention.
    
    * configure.ac (AM_SILENT_RULES): Add, to match what most projects
    are doing these days.

commit c8a4b7c32db3a6d8d5dc7a9997df2c80ac95b030

    maint: release no longer creates a diff file
    
    Ever since commit f1cf390 (1.4.14 release), we no longer create
    diff files as part of the release process.  These days, it is
    assumed that it is easier to download a fresh tarball rather
    than to try and use a diff file to patch an older tarball.
