Digger is a tool for working with D's source code and its 
history. It can build D (including older D versions), customize 
the build with pending pull requests or forks, and find the exact 
pull request which introduced a regression (or fixed a bug). It 
comes with a web interface which makes building D from source 
trivial even for people new to D, Git or the command line.
