Hi,
A few weeks ago, I noticed that when passing the Guix commit logs to
‘gitlog-to-changelog’, the result is not properly displayed in Emacs.
For example with:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
gnu: Add python-oslo.log.
* gnu/packages/openstack.scm (python-oslo.log,
python2-oslo.log): New variables.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Change Log mode requires a parenthese as a first character with only a
tabulation before (no extra space) to fontify the ‘python2-oslo.log’
with the same style as ‘python-oslo.log’. In fact it imposes precisely
what is documented in GNU Standards:
https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#Style-of-Change-Logs
I will not claim that this is a major issue, but since we try to use GNU
Change Log's format, let's conform to it. ;)
Let me precise that my point is not about personnal preference (I prefer
the current format), but it is about consistency within the GNU project.
What do people think?
