Hi,
Looking at https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/488903 I wonder whether there is actually any value in having each and every git commit mentioned in the .changes files? Would it make sense to e.g. only list the range of commits that was added, plus any bug, fate, cve etc entries fixed in that range?
Well, I understand your surprise, but it's really the result of our own changes. SLE/Leap kernel takes our patches, thus each of these changes should be recorded. Actually, the upstream stable change is a single, relatively small changelog entry. All the rest are about our own backports and fixes. These own changes are just so big.
Right.
Of course, if you have a better idea to shorten the log, please let us know.
One thing that we can and should do in Tumbleweed is to cut off old changelog entries. Right now, we are preserving the rpm changelog from 2008 (kernel 2.6.24). I hope this is doable with the checkin scripts. Michal -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner@opensuse.org
