While extracting information from Git, one of the natural things to do is to generate release notes. To generate a release note, you need all the valid information from the repository between this release and the previous release.
We can utilize some of the methods we have used earlier to generate the data we want.
We start by listing the commits between two tags, v2.3.1.201302201838-r
and v3.0.0.201305080800-m7
, and then we build on that information:
- By using
git log
withv3.0.0.201305080800-m7.. v3.0.0.201305080800-m7
, we will get the commits between the tags:
$ git log --oneline v2.3.1.201302201838-r..v3.0.0.201305080800-m7
00108d0 JGit v3.0.0.201305080800-m7
