Paul Beckingham bc756637da Commands
- Implemented CmdHelp object that replaces the report.cpp longUsage
  function, and builds the output dynamically from other Command
  objects.  This is also why the help text right now is very short,
  as only a few commands are migrated.
- Obsoleted longUsage function.
- Updated task.1 man page with 'execute' command details.
- Modified command.lua sample to include command usage.
- Removed "help" from old Context::dispatch, which means "help" is
  the first migrated command.
- Added usage and description to all Cmd* objects.
- Implemented Command::usage and Command::description as base class
  methods that simply return data that is specified by the derived
  classes.

New Features in taskwarrior 2.0.0
- New 'ids' command that returns a filtered set of task ID numbers, instead
of the actual tasks. For advanced pipeline use.
- Now supplements the command line with data read from standard input, which
allows commands like: echo 'add Pay the bills' | task
- Attribute modifiers may be prefixed with '~' to return the opposite of a
filter's results.
- Status attribute can now be used in report.
- Project names may now contain spaces.
- New export-html.pl script.
- Now supports the 'inverse' color attribute.
- Reports may now be sorted by columns that are not displayed (example: ID,
project, due date and description sorted by urgency).
- Performance enhancements.
- New 'next' report, that gauges urgency and reports the most urgent tasks.
- Fine control of verbosity through the 'verbose=' configuration variable.
- New 'execute' command that runs external scripts/programs.
Please refer to the ChangeLog file for full details. There are too many to
list here.
New commands in taskwarrior 2.0.0
- "ids" command that accepts filters, and returns an ID sequence.
New configuration options in taskwarrior 2.0.0
- Now includes Belarus and Czech Republic holiday data. Please note that
the holiday file names now include a full locale. For example:

retains the original meaning, which is whether or not to auto-detect the

- Two new solarized color themes.
- New 'dependency.indicator' for the 'depends.indicator' report field format.
