Before committing I always make an "hg di" to double-check, and then copy (part of) the Misc/NEWS entry (that usually happens to be conveniently placed at the end of the diff) in the commit message. Automating the generation of Misc/NEWS would likely make whatever modification we might want to do to the content more difficult. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18967> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
