Git Bisect reveals this:

    d49a9082c0e15bba8cd3d8cc0a994409cf823cac is the first bad commit
    commit d49a9082c0e15bba8cd3d8cc0a994409cf823cac
    Author: Chet Ramey <chet.ramey@case.edu>
    Date:   Thu Sep 15 17:02:15 2016 -0400

        Readline-7.0 distribution sources and documentation

Although that is not very helpful because d49a908 is -16034/+20692:

http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/readline.git/commit?id=d49a908

Basically they dumped the whole thing into 1 commit. Kind of pointless to even
use Git when you are doing to do that. Thanks a lot Chet :|
