It was an attempt to make it verify the properties that drdr will
run.  I switched the strategy that is used for that now.

(As a side note, this changed happened a good while ago -- it confirms
my guess that most people just edit the file directly...)

Yeah -- it would be nice if it tried to verify only things that are in
git, but that doesn't work on the tree that drdr uses.  I've added
ignore patterns for the *.app and the .DS_Store files now, so it
should verify for you now (but now you'll need to run it with a
"verify" subverb to do it, of course).  BTW, the directories below are
old things that are no longer in the tree -- you probably still have
them in with a "compiled" directory (which is why git wouldn't remove
them when they're removed from the repo):
