    Had to manually fix up a conflict in some comments.

commit c2f7b97924e2b5341cea667fbd1a2802e9cb8cd5
Author: Jason St. John <jstjohn at purdue.edu>

    Correct spelling and grammar throughout
    
    This patch addresses the issues with my previous patch submission here:
    https://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-projects/2012-June/002990.html
    
    The notable changes between this patch and the previous one are below:
    -- this patch does not rename set_timezone()
    -- 'filesystems' and 'bash' are left as-is
    -- everything is in one patch, not two
    -- the 'makedepends' change is no longer relevant because the duplication
    of it was already removed in a later commit
    
    Regarding the capitalization of "Btrfs", it seems that upstream prefers
    "Btrfs".[1][2]
    
    Regarding 'https://' vs. 'http://', I left this change in the patch
    because stating 'https://www.archlinux.org' in the start-up messages
    doesn't force anyone to use HTTPS over HTTP. It simply shows that HTTPS
    is available for use. If someone really doesn't want to use HTTPS, they
    don't have to. Finally, Dan McGee stated that HTTPS will be used all the
    time soon.[3]

commit 3779f7002c8417a77745e1e02273ed5e19ed75b7
Author: Tom Gundersen <teg at jklm.no>

    cryptsetup: deprecate old syntax and default to the systemd one
    
    We detect if the old syntax is used, and if so print a warning and use
    the old parsing code. Otherwise, we pass everything on to
    systemd-cryptsetup. Similarly to what was done with the network syntax,
    we intend to keep the legacy stuff working for a long time.
    
    See crypttab(5) for the new syntax[0].
    
    The main reason for this change, is to be closer to what other distros
    do. The systemd syntax is based on Debian's format, and is essentially
    what is being used by at least Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora and Suse. Such
    widespread use means that it will be better documented in
    non-Arch-specific documentation, and is more likely to see integration
    with third-party tools. It is also surely appreciated by admins who
    use more than one distro, that they don't have to know more than one
    config format for these sorts of basic things.
    
    Furthermore, by actually sharing the code with systemd we get to rely on
    their much more widespread testing and review compared to what we are able
    to do ourselves. This is particularly important for the encryption code,
    as it is the most obscure code in initscripts and any bugs in it would
    have potentially very severe consequences.
    
    Lastly, there are a few (albeit minor) issues I see with our current
    format: /etc/crypttab is not a plaintext file, but needs to be parsed
    through bash. The (deprecated) embedded passwords have been a source
    of problems in the past. And, there is no level of abstraction between
    the crypttab options and cryptsetup, we just pass them on blindly.
    
    The new format and the old one cover roughly the same usecases. To the
    best of my knowledge, the only use-case not (yet) supported by
    systemd-cryptsetup, is mounting a removable device and reading
    the key from a file on that device. For this, stick with the old syntax
    (though be careful, it is inherently racy).
    
    [0]: <http://0pointer.de/public/systemd-man/systemd.unit.html> (note
         that keyfile-offset support is coming in the next systemd version).

commit 27c29c2b95864e4844ef644400ebf59a08d08abd

    remove /run/nologin before leaving rc.multi
    
    systemd-186 writes this file when running systemd-tmpfiles, but
    initscripts never removes it. This disallows all non-root logins.

    hwclock: warn on discrepancy between /etc/adjtime and /etc/rc.conf about the timezone of the RTC
    
    Also, move from /var/lib/hwclock/adjtime to /etc/adjtime. This must be fixed in util-linux too.
