-			<h2>
-				Revisions for r20150126 (relative to r20150124)
+				Git. No changelog!
 			</h2>
 				<p>
-					This is a bug fix release based on r20150124. It contains a few small changes:
+					This version of libreboot is from git. It is not a stable release!
+					If you are using a snapshot (tarball), you can find a file included called <b>commitid</b>
+					which tells you what git revision it is from the libreboot git repository. If this is not
+					a snapshot, then you have cloned libreboot, so you can simply run <b>git log</b>.
 				</p>
 				<ul>
-					<li>grub.cfg: hardcode the list of partitions to search (speeds up booting considerably. GRUB regexp isn't very well optimized)</li>
-					<li>Docs (x200.html hcl): Remove incorrect information</li>
-					<li>Documentation (bbb_setup.html): Fix typos</li>
-					<li>
-						build-release: delete ich9fdgbe_{4m,8m}.bin files from ich9gen
-						<ul>
-							<li>
-								These were accidentically included in the r20150124 release. They
-								are generated from ich9gen so it's ok, but they don't need to be
-								in the archive.
-							</li>
-						</ul>
-					</li>
-					<li>Documentation (grub_cbfs.html): Looping in libreboot_grub.cfg (Add notes about it if the user copied from grub.cfg in CBFS.)</li>
-					<li>Documentation: refer to Guix as GNU Guix System Distribution or GNU GSD per advice from the Guix project.</li>
-				</ul>

-					<li>
-						Updated coreboot-libre
-						<ul>
-							<li>i945: permanently set tft_brightness to 0xff (fixes bug on X60 where
-							turning up brightness at max would make it loop back to low brightness)</li>
-						</ul>

-						</ul>

-					<li>
-						docs/release.html: Remove Acer CB5 from list of future candidates.
-						<ul>
-							<li>
-								Too many issues. Chromebooks are crippled (soldered RAM/storage/wifi)
-								and have too many usability issues for the libreboot project.
-							</li>
-						</ul>
-					</li>
-					<li>docs/gnulinux/grub_cbfs.html Major cleanup. Usability improvements.</li>
-					<li>hocs/gnulinux/encrypted_trisquel.html: Fixed mistakes/typos. General improvements</li>
-					<li>
-						flash (flashrom script): remove boardmismatch=force
-						<ul>
-							<li>
-								 This was put there before for users upgrading from libreboot r5
-								 to r6, but also allows the user to flash the wrong image. For
-								 example, the user could flash a T60 image on an X60, thus
-								 bricking the machine. It's almost certain that most people
-								 have upgraded by now, so remove this potentially dangerous
-								 option.
-							</li>
-						</ul>
-					</li>
-					<li>Documentation: update compatibility list for X60T LCD panels.</li>
-					<li>docs/release.html: add note about X60 Tablet board in X60/X60s</li>
-					<li>docs/howtos/grub_boot_installer.html: small corrections</li>
-					<li>docs/howtos/grub_boot_installer.html: improved readability, fixed html errors</li>
-					<li>Documentation (macbook21 related): clean up</li>
+					<li>Did we forget to mention that this is from git?</li>
+					<li>This is from the libreboot git repository.</li>
