`wormhole send DIRECTORY` can now handle larger (>2GB) directories.
However the entire zipfile is built in-RAM before transmission, so the
maximum size is still limited by available memory (follow #58 for
progress on fixing this). (#138)
`wormhole rx --output-file=` for a pre-existing file will now overwrite
the file (noisily), instead of terminating with an error. (#73)
We now test on py3.6. Support for py3.3 was dropped. Magic-wormhole
should now work on NetBSD. (#158)
Added a Dockerfile to build a rendezvous/transit-relay server. (#149)
`wormhole-server --disallow-list` instructs the rendezvous server to not
honor "list nameplates" requests, effectively disabling tab-completion
of the initial numeric portion of the wormhole code, but also making DoS
attacks slightly easier to detect. (#53, #150)
`wormhole send --ignore-unsendable-files` will skip things that cannot
be sent (mostly dangling symlinks and files for which you do not have
read permission, but possibly also unix-domain sockets, device nodes,
and pipes). (#112, #161)
`txtorcon` is now required by default, so the `magic-wormhole[tor]`
"extra" was removed. Tor works on py3 now. (#136, #174)
`python -m wormhole` is an alternative way to run the CLI tool. (#159)
