Hi!
I know this is controversial and some people have been committing to both
5.3 and 5.4 NEWS files. However, we have clear guidance for this:
OK, we need to have specific policy on it, because I'm hearing people
having contradictory opinions on that.
Pre git, I would have strongly voted that when a fix was merged to a
branch then that branch's NEWS file should be updated. At release
time the NEWS file would be already be complete. Snapshots would also
be consistent between code & NEWS.
This process differs from the documented one. With the way our git
repo is configured, I don't know if this causes merging issues.
NB the wiki gives git settings for NEWS:
$ git config merge.NEWS.name "Keep the NEWS file"
$ git config merge.NEWS.driver 'touch %A'
