The README led with a wallpaper and described the system of two months
ago: no desktop, no dynamic linking, a handful of drivers. It now leads
with Shift and covers Xorg and Window Maker, apk and Alpine packages,
SCFF, HTTPS, the storage, network and input drivers, and the machines it
has booted on. "Not there yet" lists what is actually missing today:
threads, udev, EHCI, touchpad gestures, an installer.
The numbers -- lines of code and of comments, syscalls, drivers, packages,
commits -- come from tools/python/stats.py, which rewrites them in the
README and on the website between stats markers instead of somebody
typing them once and letting them go stale.
.gitattributes keeps the generated font and logo tables and the vendored
Niveus out of the repository page's language bar.

The vendored copy of Niveus, the site's design system, brought up to
the current upstream (github.com/Nexoniarz/Niveus, 2026-10-18). The
tree under docs/Website/niveus is upstream's byte for byte.
.gitattributes says `* text eol=lf` and listed the binary types it
knew, and woff2 was not one of them: Niveus's InstrumentSans-Italic
had a CR LF pair in its compressed data, and committing it turned that
into LF and the font into garbage. woff, woff2, otf, ico, gif, webp,
pdf and wasm are binary now.

An x86-64 operating system built from xv6, now largely rewritten: SMP,
a copy-on-write root filesystem (SchFS), PCI/USB/virtio drivers, a TTF
rasteriser, and a Linux-numbered syscall ABI.
No history before this point -- the tree was never under version control.
This commit exists so the rename that follows has something to undo to.
