 Development repository for the Statistics standard library (stdlib) that ships with Julia. 
 
@@ -14,6 +14,3 @@ If you want to develop this package, do the following steps:
 - To test your changes, simply do `include("test/runtests.jl")`.
 
 If you need to build Julia from source with a git checkout of Statistics, then instead use `make DEPS_GIT=Statistics` when building Julia. The `Statistics` repo is in `stdlib/Statistics`, and created initially with a detached `HEAD`. If you're doing this from a pre-existing Julia repository, you may need to `make clean` beforehand.
