Hi Igal,
yeah, this is right way to write to this maillist. In general you have to
go to https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Deployments where you can find
list of deployment windows. "Big" changes should be there. You should find
window in which the change was deployed. As watchlist is core mediawiki
thing I think it'll be in some MediaWiki train. There will be link (you
should search for something like „group1 to 1.29.0-wmf.14“, the number at
the end is a link. It will point you to some page at MediaWiki.org. An
example can be found at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.29/wmf.14.
There is complete list of changes that occured including a link to gerrit.
Gerrit allows you to view even a diff if you wish it. Just click at the
filename.

Did I help you?

Best regards,
Martin Urbanec
