The upshot is that the SIP/CSR tool will appear if the showtools + and csr_values options are set appropriately in refind.conf, even if the + csr-active-config variable is missing from the NVRAM. The point of this + change is that I've received reports of some Macs that run OS X 10.11 but + that lack this variable. OS X acts as if SIP were enabled, but rEFInd is + then unable to disable SIP. This change gives rEFInd the ability to + disable SIP on such systems. The drawback is that the variable might be + set on some systems that don't run OS X 10.11. This should be harmless + from a technical point of view, but the presence of SIP indicators in + rEFInd could be confusing. + +- Added refind-mkdefault script to simplify resetting rEFInd as the default + boot program in Linux.
