blurb is a tool designed to rid CPython core development of the scourge of
Misc/NEWS conflicts.
The core concept: split Misc/NEWS into many separate files that, when
concatenated back together in sorted order, reconstitute the original
Misc/NEWS file. After that, Misc/NEWS could be deleted from the CPython
repo and thereafter rendered on demand (e.g. when building a release).
When checking in a change to CPython, the checkin process will write
out a new file that sorts into the correct place, using a filename
unlikely to have a merge conflict.
