Motivation: Collect all bit-level read operations in one class is better. And now it's easy to use not only in Bzip2Decoder. For example, in Bzip2HuffmanStageDecoder. Modifications: Created a new class - Bzip2BitReader which provides bit-level reads. Removed bit-level read operations from Bzip2Decoder. Improved javadoc. Result: Bzip2BitReader allows the reading of single bit booleans, bit strings of arbitrary length (up to 24 bits), and bit aligned 32-bit integers.

How to build
For the detailed information about building and developing Netty, please visit the developer guide. This page only gives very basic information.
You require the following to build Netty:
- Latest stable Oracle JDK 7
- Latest stable Apache Maven
Note that this is build-time requirement. JDK 5 (for 3.x) or 6 (for 4.0+) is enough to run your Netty-based application.
Branches to look
The 'master' branch is where the development of the latest major version lives on. The development of all other versions takes place in each branch whose name is identical to <majorVersion>.<minorVersion>. For example, the development of 3.9 and 4.0 resides in the branch '3.9' and the branch '4.0' respectively.
