MAJOR FEATURES + CHANGES
==========================
Change 2718441 on 2015/10/06 by Ben.Marsh@Ben.Marsh_T3245_Stream
Allow nodes to be added with an "explicit" frequency, meaning that they'll only be part of manually triggered builds (not CIS).
Change 2718698 on 2015/10/06 by Ben.Marsh@Ben.Marsh_T3245_Stream
Add a type of node that can execute an arbitrary sequence of tasks, and allow constructing graphs of such nodes from an XML file.
Change 2723013 on 2015/10/09 by Ben.Marsh@Ben.Marsh_T3245_Stream
Small utility to quickly capture a workspace, or delete files to restore the workspace to a previously captured state (and output a p4 sync list to restore it)
Change 2744521 on 2015/10/28 by Matthew.Griffin@Matthew.Griffin_G5772_BuildStream
Adding config entries to determine which platforms/configurations are available
Currently only written out as part of the Rocket Build process but could be done elsewhere for other types of installed build.
A near identical singleton class is used in both C++ and C# to load the config section and check whether configuration/platform combinations are valid.
Change 2773723 on 2015/11/19 by Ben.Marsh@Ben.Marsh_T3245_Stream
Copying UnrealGameSync into Engine/Source/Programs.
Change 2773914 on 2015/11/19 by Ben.Marsh@Ben.Marsh_T3245_Stream
PR #1687: [GitDependencies] New feature: ignore file support (.gitdepsignore) (Contributed by nbjk667)
Change 2775317 on 2015/11/20 by Ben.Marsh@Ben.Marsh_T3245_Stream
Add a -listtps option to UBT, which will find all the TPS files in any directory that's compiled into a target.
Change 2780832 on 2015/11/25 by Ben.Marsh@Ben.Marsh_T3245_Stream
Allow compiling a single file in UBT. Pass -singlefile=<Path> on command line to UBT to use.
Change 2781071 on 2015/11/25 by Ben.Marsh@Ben.Marsh_T3245_Stream
Precompile all valid engine modules for Rocket by default. Modules may set the PrecompileForTargets field to control which configurations they should be compiled for. Modules which currently fail to compile have this set to
PrecompileTargetsType.None.

Change 2784469 on 2015/12/01 by Matthew.Griffin@Matthew.Griffin_G5772_BuildStream
Added -FastPDB commandline parameter for UBT, so that we can make use of the /DEBUG:FASTLINK option in VS2015
Change 2784722 on 2015/12/01 by Matthew.Griffin@Matthew.Griffin_G5772_BuildStream
Made -FastPDB option part of BuildConfiguration instead of checking commandline at each place it's used. Also added option to override if someone doesn't want it automatically added to their project files.
Change 2787501 on 2015/12/02 by Ben.Marsh@Ben.Marsh_T3245_Stream
Restore change to gather VC environment directly from registry.

[CL 2790002 by Ben Marsh in Main branch]
- Rocket doesn't bundle Linux libs, making code-based projects (and projects with third-party plugins) fail during compilation.
- Updated messaging to reflect this.
- Also added a SDK check for Linux and a 'getting' started UDN page.
- Updated Linux README for 4.8.

[CL 2543338 by Dmitry Rekman in Main branch]
Somehow one of my projects ended up with many of the same key. The code that was handling loading of these had an assumption that each key would only appear once in the list (fixed.)
Example of duplicate keys that would cause this to crash:
[/Script/WindowsTargetPlatform.WindowsTargetSettings]

Adding Texture LOD settings to Device Profiles
- this will improve how we currently edit and override lod settings on a per device type bases.
- LOD Settings can now be set in the Device Profile Editor
- Any device profiles with no values set for LOD Settings, will use the default objects.
- These can be found in BaseDeviceProfiles.ini in the /Script/Engine.TextureLODSettings section
- Appropriate defaults set for those groups not listed.
-Other fixes
- - Incorrect with_editor check in HTML5 target platform, changed to with_engine
[CL 2481510 by Terence Burns in Main branch]
Rob asked me to back out GENERATED_*_BODY -> GENERATED_BODY change for now until the "_Validate and _Implementation auto-generation" discussion is over.

[CL 2481343 by Jaroslaw Palczynski in Main branch]
We already had FPlatformProcess::CreateProc/CloseProc pair (which is part of larger set with WaitForProc(), TerminateProc(), GetProcReturnCode(), etc). FProcHandle::Close() made the API more confusing (and actually introduced bugs, because it did not call CloseProc() until recently).

[CL 2476322 by Dmitry Rekman in Main branch]
- made public headers compilable individually
- easier access to settings section delegates
- removed module singleton accessor
- moved non-trivial definitions into cpp files
- code & documentation cleanup
#UpgradeNotes:
- instead of ISettingsModule::Get() use FModuleManager::GetModulePtr<ISettingsModule>("Settings")
- instead of using FSettingsSectionDelegates assign delegates directly through the new ISettingsSection methods
[CL 2340711 by Max Preussner in Main branch]
Now editor will tick at a decent frame rate while building shaders / caching textures.
#codereview Josh.Adams, Daniel.Wright, Matthew.Griffin
[CL 2318857 by Daniel Lamb in Main branch]
Device Services Refactoring to create the concept of a physical device.
Game launcher and device viewer UI changes to show these new concepts.
