Would it be possible to include a file of all games/applications that have fixes when they are committed. It's too hard to track unless you really doing serious work with it.
It looks like a sensible request. I usually mention games which are fixed by a commit in the commit message, but it's true that having a list somewhere is easier than scanning all the commits in a new version.
How would that work in concrete terms though? Is the idea here that someone is volunteering to keep track of this and hand the maintainer a list to include in the release notes? Or would we keep something along the lines of a ChangeLog file that individual developers should update in their MRs? Perhaps something else entirely?
The Changelog idea was what I was thinking. The developer already knows what game/application they are fixing, so makes sense to be part of the MR.
Pushing the burden on to the maintainer, feels like double handling of information which means it will get lost/forgotten.
