OK you little snots, I figured out what to do: use wdiff. $ svn diff -r BASE:HEAD RELEASE-NOTES Index: RELEASE-NOTES =================================================================== --- RELEASE-NOTES (working copy) +++ RELEASE-NOTES (revision 82501) @@ -137,6 +137,7 @@ * (bug 27201) Special:WhatLinksHere output no longer contains duplicate IDs * (bug 15905) Nostalgia skin could become more usable by including a Talk: link at the top of the page +* (bug 27560) Search queries no longer fail in walloon language === API changes in 1.18 === * (bug 26339) Throw warning when truncating an overlarge API result @@ -175,6 +176,7 @@ max value, api doesn't validate the input is actually an integer * (bug 27479) API error when using both prop=pageprops and prop=info&inprop=displaytitle +* (bug 27554) Update api information text to reflect change in bug 26125 === Languages updated in 1.18 === $ svn diff -r BASE:HEAD RELEASE-NOTES|wdiff -d -3

One wishes the diff man page would say SEE ALSO wdiff(1), and visa-versa, lest I go every stupidly writing my own program again. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
