Actually, he's talking both about automatically generated changelogs (that's what I understands that he means with "propage Changelog entries") and changelogs that he write himself that include a revision hash, and it's for the latter that I'm asking why he feels the need to, so I can understand that particular situation better. jcrisp> In which case, your comment about the relevancy is accurate, jcrisp> but inapplicable. I disagree. For the automatic changelogs, it's absolutely applicable. jcrisp> On the other had, montone clearly states it is not a 1.0 jcrisp> product, so anyone using it must be aware that the only jcrisp> certain thing is change.... ;-) Yup, that's quite true. jcrisp> Richard Levitte - VMS Whacker wrote: jcrisp> > In message <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> on Mon, 10 Apr 2006 17:25:56 +0200, Tom Koelman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> said: jcrisp> > jcrisp> > tkoelman> Another thing I noticed is that, understandably, all jcrisp> > tkoelman> revision hashes have changed.
