 * Rewrote `resample_cifti()`. The new version calls `separate_cifti()`, `resample_cifti_components()`, and then uses a template to create the new CIFTI file. (The first half is nearly identical to `read_separate_cifti()`.)
 * Moved common argument/parameter descriptions to `rox_args_docs.R`. Use `@inheritParams` to reference these descriptions. This should make maintaining them across the entire package easier.
 * Wrapper functions `separate_cifti_wrapper()` and `resample_cifti_wrapper()` to avoid duplicate code across `read_cifti()` and `resample_cifti()`. These should not be used by end-users, so they are not exported.
-* Split utility functions into `utils.R` for general functions and `utils_cifti.R` for CIFTI-specific functions.
