My work on the transition to git accidentally brought up a small issue
regarding the two
mailing lists we have the record changes in the repositories: gnucash-changes
and gnucash-
patches.
gnucash-changes publishes all commits with full details (diff of all files that
got changed)
gnucash-patches instead only publishes summaries of changes (effectively only
the commit
messages)
I didn't pay attention when setting up the mail notifications on git and
accidentally swapped
these. Looking back I think that happened because gnucash-patches naturally
makes me
think of the full diffs and gnucash-changes more of summaries.
I decided to do a a little poll regarding these two lists, to determine how to
handle them in
the (git-only) future:
1. Which lists are you subscribed to ?
a. gnucash-changes
b. gnucash-patches
c. both
d. none
2. If you're only subscribed to one, why that one ?
3. Do you think gnucash needs two lists ? Why yes or why no ?
4. For the future:
a. We should keep the two list as they are now:
gnucash-changes should have the detailed logs
gnucash-patches should have the summaries
b. We should keep two lists, but swap the contents:
gnucash-patches should have the detailed logs
gnucash-changes should have the summaries
c. I think we only need one list with detailed logs
d. I think we only need one list with summaries
You may motivate your answers :)
