2025-03-17 00:36:47 +0100 <davean> Oh from memory I thought that was a specification of the GNU one
2025-03-17 00:32:36 +0100 <juri_> there's also a debian changelog specification, for package changelogs.

2025-03-17 00:23:35 +0100 <mauke> only one of those specifies a format, and it is incompatible with hackage

2025-03-17 00:14:38 +0100 <davean> It is infact dumb
2025-03-17 00:14:35 +0100 <davean> As I said I dobut anyone does the GNU one.
2025-03-17 00:14:28 +0100 <davean> mauke: the other one is https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/ but usually https://common-changelog.org/ which is what most tools process

2025-03-17 00:10:30 +0100 <mauke> and (in practical terms) useless as a changes file
2025-03-17 00:09:26 +0100 <mauke> as usual with gnu, that "standard" is nuts
2025-03-17 00:04:22 +0100 <jackdk> I think he means things like https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#Style-of-Change-Logs

2025-03-16 23:10:05 +0100 <davean> Also, frankly, I doubt anyone keeps the GNU style guide one.
2025-03-16 23:09:31 +0100 <davean> Well, specificly 2, but you can tell them appart by file name.

2025-03-16 23:06:26 +0100 <davean> Yes but there *is* infact a standard

2025-03-16 23:05:40 +0100 <geekosaur> I think the main complaint would be that it would require cabal to impose some structure on changelogs so it could recognize whether it was there or not
2025-03-16 23:03:59 +0100 <davean> Its a good warning
2025-03-16 23:03:54 +0100 <davean> It seems worse to have it as a local thing for just yourself.
2025-03-16 23:03:36 +0100 <davean> mauke: why not contribute it back as a warning for everyone?
2025-03-16 23:01:14 +0100 <geekosaur> (external commands are implemented but there's not currently a plan for extending existing ones)
2025-03-16 23:00:44 +0100 <geekosaur> starting to happen but not there yet

2025-03-16 22:50:26 +0100 <mauke> I was hoping cabal would be extensible
2025-03-16 22:48:48 +0100 <davean> That is outside the default scope for check, its clearly a warning level feature though
2025-03-16 22:48:15 +0100 <davean> mauke: you tell it by adding the code there :)

2025-03-16 22:22:24 +0100 <mauke> how do I tell 'cabal check' to verify that my changelog contains an entry for the current version?
2025-03-16 22:21:09 +0100 <mauke> haha
