address@hidden skrev:Please make use of the ChangeLog. Change details don't have to be incredibly detailed and in fact more general descriptions are better, since the details are in the code itself.When I read this the first time, I thought you meant the svn commit notes, but now I see there is a file named ChangeLog as well. How about auto-generating the ChangeLog from the svn commit notes, or is that a bad idea? For summarizing changes between versions, the svn commit notes should do just as well as the ChangeLog file. // David
Its definitely a duplication of information. I wonder how this is typically handled these days, where most projects use some form of version control. It seems like the whole ChangeLog paradigm is a bit outdated. We could just scrap the ChangeLog altogether and just use svn. I get confused by the svn log command though, since it sometimes doesn't show the most recent log entries and has other strange behavior which I have never understood.
I'm definitely not attached to the ChangeLog file though. Any other opinions? Josh
