                        Changes in version 0.3.0                        

Several improvements for consistency and sensible defaults based on
trial deployment.

Logs

  - Central log now gets all demotions (previously only promotions were
    recorded, but this can create confusion).
  - Marked folders are no longer demoted and re-promoted if they are
    marked as the same folder type
      - Prevents log bloat.
      - Prevents confusion about when date-versions were elevated.

Reports

  - Main 'important versions' report has a sensible name.
  - Report names are consolidated to private dictionaries.
  - Reports are now sorted based on the timestamp field, which should
    keep all versions chronological based on when they were marked.

Methods

  - added roundup_unmark() method
      - Useful for finding folders that are not being tracked for easier
        bulk-removal.
  - added roundup_best() method
      - Back-filling a conspicuously absent option - allows the tool to
        be used for systematic operations with the best version, instead
        of hand-building file paths.
