+Start script:
+ * G78:grass: stop clearing the terminal upon closing; shorten GRASS prompt; do not require dev pkg to be installed for path `grass --config path` as well as `version` and `svn_revision`. Note that revision is currently broken due to Subversion to Git migration.

+Modules:
+ * G78:d.barscale: font support added (PR #72)
+ * G78:g.extension: enforce change to python3 during installation of Addon
  * G78:g.extension: fix bitbucket download, assumes master branch; fixed incomplete updating addon metadata file

  * G78:g.search.modules: support for installed addons added
  * G78:i.pansharpen.py: added new channel stretch option; fixed rare possible bug in histogram matching algorithm and made all output maps integer CELL maps
+ * G78:i.vi: NDWI index added (Normalized Difference Water Index)
  * G78:m.nviz.script: fix memory leaks,fix compiler warnings + coverity scan
+ * G78:r.contour: fix broken contour lines; clean contour lines tracing back on themselves
+ * G78:r.import: try to avoid failure after v.proj (see PR #24)
  * G78:r.in.gdal: added info on subdatasets (relevant for MODIS, Sentinel, ... datasets)

+ * G78:r.out.mpeg: fix fail because the output file name is empty 
  * G78:r.plane: added function float_or_dms
+ * G78:r.slope.aspect: fix window alignment to input raster
+ * G78:r.sun: fix error when using both lat and lon raster
  * G78:r.thin: avoid integer overflow
  * G78:r.walk: add option nearest from r.cost
+ * G78:v.buffer: added test for zero distance
  * G78:v.in.geonames: read as UTF8
+ * G78:v.in.ogr: fix OGR extents
  * G78:v.in.pdal: use PDAL streaming instead of PointView
- * G78:v.buffer: added test for zero distance
+ * G78:v.voronoi: fix for area skeletons and voronoi diagrams for areas. Numerical stability of v.voronoi has been improved but is not perfect.
