[Bf-committers] Blender 2.79 Release Candidate 1 AHOY!

[Bastien Montagne]

Hi,

We've switched to bcon5 today which means two things:

1. Only crucial fixes are allowed in the master branch
2. We're doing RC1 builds

Information for platform maintainers:

- Branch: blender-v2.79-release
- Branch hash: 5e9132b3b7d43785ec0f4d944159acc1c815c7c9
- Locale hash: 86bad5bdd62b2ae4db1c9027a9cc3e378c3e564c
- Addons hash: 9d3a25cac02a56afa898e930e6f4dfa270fd4c28

Suggested name: blender-2.78-rc1-<platform>

Please note Git is considered frozen for until all the builds are up 
(approx ~24hrs from now on). No commits are allowed to the master branch 
for until unfreeze message is sent t this ML (expect this tomorrow 
afternoon-ish).

Thanks everyone for the work! :)

P.S. Tagging will happen after it's clear we don't do re-AHOY.

PPS: First release for me, hope I did not forget anything...
