Allen Wittenauer created YETUS-568:
--------------------------------------
Summary: break apart versioning of files and directories
Key: YETUS-568
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YETUS-568
Project: Yetus
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Release Doc Maker
Reporter: Allen Wittenauer
Currently, releasedocmaker always generates a version directory wherever it is
told to write it's output:
{code}
rdm -p yetus -v 0.6.0 -> 0.6.0/CHANGES.0.6.0.md
0.6.0/RELEASENOTES.0.6.0.md
rdm -o foo -p yetus -v 0.6.0 -> foo/0.6.0/CHANGES.0.6.0.md
foo/0.6.0/RELEASENOTES.0.6.0.md
{code}
In some situations, this is really less than ideal, especially given that the
files also have the version stuck in them. (In fact, the current rdm output is
making life difficult for Yetus' own release process.)
We need to rethink this a bit. Some ideas for improvement:
* Add a flag (--fileversions?) that add the version to the filenames, e.g.,
CHANGES.MD to CHANGES.0.6.0.md
* Add a flag (--dirversions?) that creates the version directory. e..g., -O
foo --dirversions would write in foo/0.6.0 as it does today.
While we are breaking rdm, it may be worthwhile to change from CHANGES to
CHANGELOG, which will make a lot of other software that looks specifically for
CHANGELOG files happy.
