      Every few days my phone downloads new Version of Ubuntu Touch:
      recent that shows up:
      Version 598 Updated 25 July

      How to understand those versions? Where I can see the change log of what was done in this version so I know what should be checked for?

          thank you, but in that case... is there SOME way using this release as an example to trace back commit messages that I can read at least to see what fixes/changes were made?

            @simbar if you have fun going through hundreds of repos everytime something changes you can be our changelog master in the future ^^

            No really, from a developers perspective you have to understand not every commit in devel is "the final one", we have to try out things if they work, revert, things are committed partially, or even a feature is across multiple repos etc.

            Canonical has a cool feature called "silos" which is managed by Bileto. So people can commit whatever they want in how many repos that are needed, at the end, when its ready, all commits are taken over from that "silo" of code into production with a clean commit message for traceability.

            That luxury we do not have. We struggle already with the usual workload, so its entirely not possible for the devs to trace everything and document it properly.

            Its better for you I think to look at the changes we publish for every stable release and follow the sprint boards, but there is no way we gonna filter all commits to devel in such a way that you can read them convienetly.

                @domubpkm Well its not that easy we also start having stuff on Gitlab. To make a view work for the whole organization someone needs to code up a data mining tool for some time.

                  @flohack Yes, I had forgotten about Gitlab πŸ™‚ ! But maybe the same type of query is possible?

                    @domubpkm said in Ubuntu touch version - where is the changelog?:

                    But maybe the same type of query is possible?

                    It's not. It's one of my worst annoyances with GitLab.

                      @unisuperbox There is the "merge events" filter on https://gitlab.com/groups/ubports/-/activity though.

                      Granted it's not exact for what one might have gotten on their device, and you can't limit it to last 24 hours. But its's as reasonable a rough overview of changes as the aforementioned GitHub search query, I think.
