* The confusing GREP_COLOR environment variable is now obsolescent
* Regular expressions with stray backslashes now cause warnings
* Regular expressions like [:space:] are now errors even if POSIXLY_CORRECT is set, since POSIX now allows the GNU behavior
* In locales using UTF-8 encoding, the regular expression \'.\' no longer sometimes fails to match Unicode characters
* The -s option no longer suppresses \"binary file matches\" messages.- doc: fix man page syntax errors (bsc#1201001)
* Wed Aug 03 2022 Andreas Schwab - Skip more gnulib tests in qemu build
* Tue May 24 2022 Dirk Müller - use release keyring rather than full one for validation

* Tue Aug 03 2021 Andreas Schwab - gnulib-c-stack.patch: Fix AC_SYS_XSI_STACK_OVERFLOW_HEURISTIC configure check
* Sat Nov 28 2020 Andreas Stieger - remove deprecated texinfo macros- silence egrep,fgrep packaging warnings
* Mon Nov 09 2020 Andreas Schwab - Update to grep 3.6
* The GREP_OPTIONS environment variable no longer affects grep\'s behavior.
* grep\'s DFA matcher performed an invalid regex transformation that would convert an ERE like a+a+a+ to a+a+, which would make grep a+a+a+ mistakenly match \"aa\".
