Commit messages are actually significantly more messy to work with than Jira to assemble sensible release notes, and this for several reasons: * The granularity is smaller, you have to filtrate through all the meaningless commits (like javadoc typos, import cleanup or Maciej's world famous straddlers). Could be manageable with just a couple of committers but for us it's a bit of a headache. * There's not much to point out, people interested in a given fix aren't very appealed by a commit log. * Lack of context, a Jira issue can live (i.e. Alex can correct my misinterpretations due to me reading the ticket too quickly) and the resulting comments sometimes have value. So as a whole, even if being minimalistic has advantages, I believe Jira exists for good reasons :) Matthieu Assaf > > > Matthieu > > >
