David Smiley commented on LUCENE-8883: -------------------------------------- Optimization really does seam useful & meaningful, and I admit it's not easy to differentiate a New Feature from an Improvement. I do wish we also were in the habit of prefixing both CHANGES entries and commit messages with the module or feature in question, so that we/users needn't parse it out in our heads when reading them. > CHANGES.txt: Auto add issue categories on new releases > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: LUCENE-8883 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8883 > Project: Lucene - Core > Issue Type: Task > Components: general/build > Reporter: David Smiley > Assignee: David Smiley > Priority: Minor > Attachments: LUCENE-8883.patch, LUCENE-8883.patch > > > As I write this, looking at Solr's CHANGES.txt for 8.2 I see we have some > sections: "Upgrade Notes", "New Features", "Bug Fixes", and "Other Changes". > There is no "Improvements".... so no surprise here, the New Features category > has issues that ought to be listed as such. I think the order vary as well. > I propose that on new releases, the initial state of the next release in > CHANGES.txt have these sections. They can easily be removed at the upcoming > release if there are no such sections, or they could stay as empty. It seems > addVersion.py is the code that sets this up and it could be enhanced. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
