09:16:19 kashyap stephenfin: The reason I ask is, QEMU upstream uses MediaWiki for changelog. E.g. https://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/6.0

09:17:14 stephenfin For example, I tried to integrate it into Sphinx, but they have a merge-back model whereby you propose things to stable branches and then periodically merge those back into master. That breaks reno, which expects branches stable branches to diverge

09:18:31 kashyap stephenfin: Oh, I see. So, if a project has non-converging stable -> master approach, then 'reno' is good?

09:18:33 stephenfin kashyap: it's not as clever, but that's possibly a good thing. No git parsing logic. You simply create news fragment files and then once, before a release, you run a manual step to combine those into once NEWS/CHANGELOG/<whatever> file

09:19:30 kashyap stephenfin: Okay; thanks for the suggestion. I'll check w/ the QEMU upstream folks to guage the appetite

09:19:44 kashyap Since I got used to 'reno', I abhor MediaWiki :D

09:20:17 stephenfin though you also occasionally need to go in and create a static summary changelog (or whatever you want to call them), whereby you instruct reno not to scan past commit N and simply generate a static listing

09:29:08 kashyap I worry about the "occasionally don't forget to generate static summary" from dead branches -- it's easy to forget. /me thinks if there's a way to automate it (even if it's just an email reminder)
