The FTP protocol is getting long in the tooth, and we should emphasize HTTPS where that is available. This patch changes various gcc.gnu.org URL's to instead use HTTPS. For instance, kernel.org shut down FTP access in 2017, with the explanation: - The protocol is inefficient and requires adding awkward kludges to firewalls and load-balancing daemons - FTP servers have no support for caching or accelerators, which has significant performance impacts - Most software implementations have stagnated and see infrequent updates ChangeLog: 2019-11-20 Janne Blomqvist <jb@gcc.gnu.org> * configure.ac: Use https for gcc.gnu.org. * configure: Regenerated. gcc/ChangeLog: 2019-11-20 Janne Blomqvist <jb@gcc.gnu.org> * configure.ac: Use https for gcc.gnu.org. * configure: Regenerated. * doc/install.texi: Use https for gcc.gnu.org. * doc/sourcebuild.texi: Likewise. gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog: 2019-11-20 Janne Blomqvist <jb@gcc.gnu.org> * README: Use https for gcc.gnu.org. libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog: 2019-11-20 Janne Blomqvist <jb@gcc.gnu.org> * doc/html/api.html: Use https for gcc.gnu.org. * doc/xml/api.xml: Likewise. maintainer-scripts/ChangeLog: 2019-11-20 Janne Blomqvist <jb@gcc.gnu.org> * gcc_release: Use https for gcc.gnu.org.

This directory contains various files used by the gccadmin account on gcc.gnu.org, mainly for automated tasks such as the daily update of the date in gcc/DATESTAMP. There isn't presently any scheme for files checked in here to be automatically checked out and used by gccadmin, so the files in Subversion and those used by gccadmin must be kept in sync manually.
