Improve update available screen about git-updater HOT 11 CLOSED

This would be great. I didn't know how to do this and couldn't find any great examples to learn from.

I don't know either off the top of my head, but I think a delve into WP core code should be able to find something filterable. At worst, we end-up hiding that link (so we're not leaving something obviously broken).

This looks to be in wp-admin/includes/update.php around line 208. Looks like action hook in_plugin_update_message-$file

I have this in my updater plugin. See GPU_Updater::get_sections and this line in GPU_Controller::plugins_api(), as well as this check.

I think I've done pretty well with e608ce5 and a649914 . This is in the develop branch.

Currently this only pulls from a CHANGES.md file. If I could just figure out how to return the markdown rendered text we would be set.

If there's an easy way to parse a standard readme.txt file into an object other data can be more easily populated. Of course that would then mean asking people to include valid readme.txt files. Another solution would be to parse the plugin's headers for the data and if it exists use it. It's not normally in the plugin's headers, but we are parsing that anyway.

Thoughts?

Themes are a bit wonky here. Single/multisite installs are different too. Especially as of WP3.8. Working with @scarstens on this.

@scarstens latest 3.9RC1 seems to have changed the 'View version xxx details' for the themes. Any ideas?
