Update of bug #29798 (project libredwg):
Status: None => Need Info
_______________________________________________________
Follow-up Comment #1:
This looks like a version-skew problem with Git. The create-changelog
program expects a "git log" command that supports the fancy --format option.
There are two approaches to solve the problem:
(1) require maintainers (or whoever wishes to run create-changelog) to have a
sufficiently up-to-date Git installed;
(2) have create-changelog test "git log" capability at runtime and use a
fallback strategy if older Git is detected.
Personally, i like (1) because that's easy for me. However, doing (1) does
not set a good example and thus is less desirable, so (2) it will be.
pitanga, could you please post version info for the Git you have installed?
In the meantime, i will do some archeology on "git log" capabilities to
explore the possibilities for (2).
