Historical note: we started with *-log and *-changelog because GNU Arch had both commands. "tla changelog" is the command that gives you the log in a format which complies with GNU coding standards for ChangeLog (or at least, almost so, I'm not 100% sure). I think we should keep something like that : * dvc-log is the swiss-army knife, close to "<back-end> log" ran in the command-line (it parses its output, and then pretty-prints it, but it should show the user the same kind of output as he/she would expect in command-line), customizable, ... * dvc-changelog does roughly the same, but shows you what you'd expect in a ChangeLog file, typically for a project that doesn't use a version control system and put log entries there manually. In today's implementation, dvc-changelog is a bit of a mess accross back-ends (depending on whether the back-end has a "changelog" command in command-line), but ideally, it should just be a pretty printer for dvc-log. To me, the performance issue is orthogonal to that. -- Matthieu _______________________________________________ Dvc-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/dvc-dev
