Hi Varun,

We're discussing automation of the change log further to understand the impact it would have on the code review process and whether and how we can achieve automation that works for all use cases. I'll let you know of any updates on future automation!

Thanks,

Lauren

Hi Varun,

Thank you for planning to provide the change log updates after the 2.3 release!

Automating additions to the change log was in our original discussion, but I will take this to the broader team on Thursday and get back to you.

Thanks!

Lauren

Thanks for highlighting this. For Tegra platforms, we will provide up to date information to the platform change log after 2.3. We will have to live with the current state of the log for 2.3.

>> Reviewers please continue to help determine if documentation is required for a given patch.

Curious, have there been discussions around automating this somehow? E.g. add a tag to the commit message for a script to pick later.

External email: Use caution opening links or attachments

Hi All,

Following the TF-A release planned for April, platforms will be expected to maintain their own Change Log files to document relevant changes in platform specific code. The common TF-A Change Log will no longer document Platform specific updates after the 2.3 release.

As a general reminder, it is up to the developer to document changes in common TF-A code that is relevant in the "Upcoming Change Log" file. Reviewers please continue to help determine if documentation is required for a given patch. During each code freeze for a release the documentation in the upcoming change log will be moved to the change log corresponding to the release.

Thanks,

Lauren Wehrmeister
