Commit Message:

PS1, Line 84: Acked-by: Stefan Tauner 
I'd drop this since it's not this revision he acked.

File Makefile:

PS1, Line 1357:  "$(MAN_DATE)"
This overwrites the default system-management heading (center of
first line). Why? it's also not mentioned in the commit message.

PS1, Line 44: # We need to update our upstream information sometimes so that we can create detailed version information.
            : # To that end the code below fetches parts of the upstream repository via https.
            : # This takes about one second or less under normal circumstances.
Do we break lines only at full stops now? This looks like a single
paragraph to me. Everything wider than about 70 chars limits reada-
bility.

Applies to many comments in this file.

Line 66: upstream repositories as git remote to rely on that information.
Is here supposed to start a new paragraph? Please separate them
with an empty line.

Also, please break the whole text somewhere between 60~70 chars.
We want people to read it, don't we?

PS1, Line 86: "$1"
This is an empty string if $1 is not set. It still works, but git
already complains that it won't much longer.

PS1, Line 218: previse
precise?
