TL;DR: Let's replace profiles/**/ChangeLog with profiles/ChangeLog, because |
| 2 |
it's a mess. |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
I'm writing the new changelog generation code [1][2], and I'm wondering if we |
| 5 |
can clean up the mess that we have in profiles/. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
The existing Portage egencache --update-changelogs command does NOT generate |
| 8 |
any ChangeLogs for profiles/ (or eclasses, licenses, scripts, metadata, |
| 9 |
toplevel skel.*). |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
There is no strict pattern to the past CVS ChangeLogs for profiles. |
| 12 |
Some directories have their own ChangeLogs covering everything in that scope, |
| 13 |
but occasionally there is also deeper ChangeLogs that mean the top-level |
| 14 |
changelog doesn't cover it anymore. |
| 15 |
Notable examples: |
| 16 |
profiles/default/bsd/fbsd/amd64/9.1/clang/ChangeLog-2015 |
| 17 |
profiles/default/bsd/ChangeLog-2015 |
| 18 |
(of all default/bsd/, why did only bsd/fbsd/amd64/9.1/clang warrant it's own changelog?) |
| 19 |
profiles/features/ChangeLog-2015 |
| 20 |
profiles/features/prefix/ChangeLog-2015 |
| 21 |
(why did features/prefix/ get it's own changelog?) |
| 22 |
profiles/releases/freebsd-8.2/ChangeLog-2015 |
| 23 |
profiles/releases/freebsd-9.1/ChangeLog-2015 |
| 24 |
(the rest of profiles/releases/, including other freebsd releases, is all in the root profiles/ChangeLog). |
