Sure, you can find examples of projects which are very careful with things where others are not as careful. (Myself, I tend to svn commit -m "`head -14 ChangeLog`" or whatever, and it works really really well.) > There is no rational reason why GNOME would need both ChangeLog and svn log. In the end it really depends on the maintainer. Yours truly won't take patches for his modules if they don't come with a ChangeLog entry ;) Federico _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
