Description qubodup 2016-01-16 01:01:27 UTC
The changelog file should probably be updated with the new changes from 15.12. The latest entry is 15.08

Comment 1 Wegwerf 2016-10-08 15:24:44 UTC
Looks like no one is keen on writing a change log, so I'm closing this report as it is by now considerably stale, not least with 16.12.0 only two months ahead.
Comment 2 qubodup 2016-11-03 06:32:52 UTC
A changelog file is present in the repository, indicating it to be the source of change log information. However it hasn't been updated since 15.12.

Please
a) update the file or
b) explain at the top of the file, how to get latest change log information (I'm guessing this could be a quickgit.kde.org link that gives all the changes for a specific release if that's possible or just a link to the blog, it at least seems to have a log for 16.08.2 https://kdenlive.org/2016/10/kdenlive-16-08-2-released/

Albert from KDE gave me some tips recently, so try something like this:

git fetch
git fetch --tags
git log --pretty=format:"%s" v16.08.3..origin/Applications/16.12 > log.txt

You will be able also to find these logs on the official KDE announcement and on the website. 

Cheers

This has not been resolved. There exists a changelog that ends at 15.08 without notice https://cgit.kde.org/kdenlive.git/tree/ChangeLog

We could put links in there but kdenlive is notorious at not keeping URLs working :) just look at the last line, which links to http://kdenlive.org/discover/0.8 (the reached target has nothing to do with version 0.8).

I would love to add these myself but I doubt anybody has the time to teach me git to the level of being able to do it.

Based on https://kdenlive.org/2016/12/kdenlive-16-12-released/ I made a more readable changelog for the txt file. Duplicates removed, some more new features found, removed fixes of bugs introduced while developing this release.

Later we can gradually update the other missing releases if I/somebody finds the time and the Changelog txt file is still welcome. :)

So I humbly request that somebody adds the following to the Changelog file:

16.12 (2016-12-15)
