[vlc-devel] commit: Remove CACHEDIR.tag ( Rémi Denis-Courmont )

[git version control]

vlc | branch: master | Rémi Denis-Courmont <remi at remlab.net> | Mon Jan 25 20:07:18 2010 +0200| [ec77bc81de6d1d79a5a2c219b6acb1b3b703e397] | committer: Rémi Denis-Courmont 

Remove CACHEDIR.tag

As we now store the cache in ~/.cache, this has become quite useless.
In any case, practically no software implements this spec, adn the
author seems to have lost interest over  years ago.
