I like the changelog file too for a few reasons : - URLs do change. Say the URL to point to the changelog generation evolves in JIRA. - scrolling and CTRL+F is pretty good to find the info you are looking for. - I like self contained releases
It is a manual step but we might be able to automatize it and this is not the one I lose it on when I do releases. I quite like this one actually :) Emmanuel On 3 mars 2013, at 23:09, Sanne Grinovero <sa...@hibernate.org> wrote: > On 3 March 2013 15:42, Steve Ebersole <st...@hibernate.org> wrote: >> If I had to guess, Brett probably just missed updating that during the last >> few releases.
