Hello,
I think it'd be a good idea to generate ChangeLogs from the git commit
messages. I usually write the same information in both ChangeLog and
commit message, so we're needlessly duplicating information.
Since ChangeLogs are meant for users, I'd like to generate them on the git
server, as part of the metadata generation, and distribute them in our
rsync:// checkouts (and remove them from our git repositories).
This assumes that at some point we'll provide rsync:// checkouts
for all our hosted supplemental repositories.
Anything else we want to change wrt this?
- Move them to metadata/changelogs/{exlibs,packages,profiles}
- Keep or remove email adresses?
- Keep our email adresses somewhere in the tree, say metadata/authors?
Thinking out loud, we could have tags in the git commit messages to
automate some things a bit more, the way KDE does in their SVN repo.
- fixes: Reference bug, mark as RESOLVED FIX.
- see: Reference bug.
- thanks: Recognize contributors
Comments?
Regards,
Ingmar
