Dennis Lundberg commented on MCHANGES-78:
-----------------------------------------
Thanks to Emmanuel and Rémy for your feedback.
I agree when you say the this issue has not been handled well from our side.
First we should assess whether or not the idea of the submission is good or
bad. If we like it, then we can make suggestions or demands on packaging, code
style, licensing and such issues. Sorry about that. We'll try to do better in
the future.
The changes.xml file for me is a "poor mans issue tracker". Dead simple to use
for anyone, even those that don't even have an SCM to store their source code.
Judging by your comments I must have misunderstood how the plugin works. Are
you saying that it can be used *without* an issue tracker?
Have you guys looked at maven-changelog plugin? It fetches the commit message
from your SCM and produces a report of every commit made. See for example:
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-changelog-plugin/changelog.html
Perhaps we could integrate your Commit Message Parser into that plugin instead?
Thereby being able to mark the commits by type; add, fix etc.
