Oh god, that's like saying you want to generate the NEWS file from the git commit log.
I meant nothing less than: rpm -q --changelog kernel-desktop
That kind of thing only makes sense. This is actually a changelog.
That's not really true.
That only makes sense when the git/svn/vcs log indeed contains descriptive entries.
OBS-web recently took out the text box that allowed you to comment on web-based edits, so you have lots of empty comments when changes are made through the web-ui. That kills your idea pretty much, but even if that text box was reinstated (which I'd recommend), it still has many drawbacks. For one, it depends on user discipline,
Well, if somebody commits via web-ui, I doubt they change the .changes file. The discipline is needed in both separate-.changes and osc-log cases at the very same level.
for two, once you make a mistake on the VCS log, you can't undo it. Mistakes happen, so that's not really good.
Mistakes happen, even in the kernel log where we cannot undo them. This is the case in any vcs maintained project. And we live with that, your argument looks to be odd in this case.
On the other hand, OBS vcs changelogs also contain SR descriptions when SRs are accepted. That would in fact make for a good changelog.
Yes, one more supporting argument. regards, - -- js suse labs -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.18 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJQQMdyAAoJEL0lsQQGtHBJ+LUP/3sjhOa9w2oWNi+SM/hhYl5K RhEbFLFc98w/48iRGrn2NohkFzmvk9zqFZmc6SbWsTlh8DF9sdqOgdyNTWPAqHHI 025h7jdZ0MpvBNG5ftn+Bg2vbNkxsljU2YNJP8YtAVlrpgP+/gjISYKu4IL7XWM+ +7ilYBV7VnDrlJsKU3gSD1llXaKeQwmYgxEyDp3XWQmpPdDxJjyAZ+E9JsDO9o2/ gMis3xtFitZKC1HnltZNAq5foVK0UR1P9mPd03GsSkZY5t52JrTJ9MIz5iqhNcyk kP6JyBMPFlhY8qzhJwtxSKrvBcDwMWVooxFL9Y/2zsHKInWydo9cItuWncAFV8Lr mclK+jFMgcXPlK9rSrPK7jshva1ssewX8ZATUS+jGkes/TQt806HcWuq80tfYczw 5aL5RwOamnpmlAtjnFmHUVueZyuslFcasaKr0O8BE2YpprZ2CNjD225ZR39CxzXO N4myI2KJ8uo7PpbpWuIaqXRtj4mmq5sBxXIm8QhpmO3BoXA6LuzJHkAyu8gYKuvS e+MSwMf5WV3m80fqAzTR/pJNJsgb+eJSBUbRq0y8kBoMB1ZeAFUGavxZAJ7fXFDV diIKVZbAKr/bP/3Fw0kS+vmqMCom1nSsNDiFf59IgNf7RkqUrEOH48DEMLUhLGmd JobZhxLUCKVeZMmuMIzL =I2hs -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
