Changelog App

Overview

Update app ChangeLog entries and keep each app's

vsn
in sync.

Workflow

  1. Identify the target app under
    apps/<app>/
    and open
    apps/<app>/ChangeLog
    .
  2. Read the top entry and check whether it is
    UNRELEASED
    .
  3. Determine the desired next version from the latest released version (first dated entry) and the change type.
  4. If an
    UNRELEASED
    entry exists:
    • If its version is lower than the desired next version, update the
      * VERSION:
      line (never lower it).
    • Update
      apps/<app>/src/<app>.app.src
      {vsn, "X.Y.Z"}
      to match the resulting
      UNRELEASED
      version.
    • Append the new change line(s) under the version line.
  5. If no
    UNRELEASED
    entry exists:
    • Insert a new
      UNRELEASED
      entry at the top with the version line.
    • Update
      apps/<app>/src/<app>.app.src
      {vsn, "X.Y.Z"}
      to match.
    • Add the change line(s) under the version line.
  6. Do not replace
    UNRELEASED
    with a date; only do that at release time.

Versioning Rules

Use semantic versioning:

  • Patch: fixes or small maintenance changes.
  • Minor: new features or notable behavior changes.
  • Major: breaking changes.

Never downgrade an existing

UNRELEASED
version; only raise it when needed.

If an existing

UNRELEASED
version is too low for the change (example:
0.1.1
but a feature is added and last release is
0.1.0
), update it and sync the
vsn
.

Formatting Rules

Use the existing ChangeLog formatting:

  • Use a header line like
    UNRELEASED  ts-klassen  <qrpc@su-shiki.com>
    or
    YYYY-MM-DD  ts-klassen  <qrpc@su-shiki.com>
    .
  • Keep a blank line after the header.
  • Use tabs for indentation and
    *
    bullets, matching the file.
  • Use 2 new lines in between entries.

Example Requests

You will mainly update the app code (Erlang, Rust, HTML, CSS, JavaScript) and write what you changed to ChangeLog

  • "Please add a new erlang module
    q_tut_hello_world
    "
  • "Add a new function
    hello_world/0
    to
    q_tut.erl
    "
  • "Fix a bug in this file"
