Greetings, While applying a couple of commits to QGIS' plugin manager, I would like to fix a long-standing UX issue with it, namely that plugins that show a newer version available do _not_ show the latest changelog but rather the changelog of the currently installed plugin version.
It'd much nicer, and exciting for users, to show what's new _prior to_ hitting the [ update plugin ] button. For that to happen, we'd need either: a/ add the changelog information in the repository XML file fetched (i.e. https://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/plugins.xml?qgis=3.6), or b/ add a method to fetch changelog strings from the repository site (for e.g., https://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/changelog.xml?names=plugin1,plugin2,plugin3 ). Unless adding the short changelog to the repository XML adds too many MBs, I'd vote for option A. Thoughts? Mathieu
