Description Ralf Habacker 2022-05-04 08:08:42 UTC 
SUMMARY
Changelogs generated by logme.rb may be contaminated translation related and other unwanted commits e.g. minor corrections. It would be nice if these commits could be omitted from the change log

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. clone KDE git repo for releaseme into $HOME/src and install required ruby interpreter
2. clone git repo for alkimia into $HOME/src
3. enter $HOME/src/alkimia
4. run ../releaseme/logme.rb --ancestor=v8.1.0
5. inspect file alkimia.html

OBSERVED RESULT
The mentioned file contains some lines which contain 'GIT_SILENT' and refer to the update of translations.

EXPECTED RESULT
It should be possible to omit these and other unrelated commits on request.

In logme.rb exclude all commits with _SILENT in the subject

So far only svn related commits were excluded.
