I've begun the task of assessing the 2.6 commits, but the job is
unexpectedly large.
What I did:
* Took the output of 'svn log -r60999:66717'. (2.5.2 was branched
from rev. 60999, so I'm ignoring commits to the trunk before 2.5.2 was
branch, which may miss some things.)
* Wrote a little script to explode the log into a separate file for each
commit. This resulted in about 2200 files.
* Did a long series of 'grep' and 'rm' commands to remove irrelevant files.
For example, if the commit touches abc.py, bytesobject.c, bytearrayobject.c,
etc. it was removed.
* Wrote a little script to find commits that only touch the docs, and moved them
aside.
At this point I still have 1191 files left. Many of these commits are
still irrelevant, but this is a lot for me to look through. A tarball
with the remaining commits is at
http://www.amk.ca/files/python/2.6-changes.tgz
Can we parallelize the job? One person could take commits starting
with '01', another with '02', etc. Or each person could assess the
commits they made.
