When passed no revision arguments, ‘git shortlog’ reads a log from
stdin if and only if stdin is not a tty. So scripts that need to
function identically when standard input is a terminal (as when run
interactively) and not (as when run through a cron job) should either
supply a log themselves or specify the desired revisions explicitly.

Unlike gcc, asciidoc does not atomically write its output file or
delete it when interrupted. If it is interrupted in the middle of
writing an XML file, the result will be truncated input for xsltproc.
XSLTPROC user-manual.html
user-manual.xml:998: parser error : Premature end of data in t
Take care of this case by writing to a temporary and renaming it when
