+
+ * Our source code has used the SHA1_HEADER cpp macro after "#include"
+   in the C code to switch among the SHA-1 implementations. Instead,
+   list the exact header file names and switch among implementations

+   settings before it finds and set itself up in the location of the
+   repository and was quite messy due to its "chicken-and-egg" nature.
+   The code has been restructured.
