Possible break of compatibility warning ?

(1/4) > >>

Fred vS:
Hello.

Does it exist something that warn about a possible break of compatibility on a commit done in trunk?

There is https://wiki.freepascal.org/User_Changes_Trunk but I would like something more git-commit-focused.
For example a grid that add a line when a commit could affect compatibility, with the git-commit number and some explanation?.

Thanks.

Thaddy:
Trunk is a moving target and therefor it would be very hard to maintain such things. Some features can be withdrawn etc... And you can already find out the commit using git.

Hum, how to filter the commits with potentially break-compatibility using git, what key-word to use?

For example, for a "Merge request" there is a template with some questions, like "What is the current bug behavior?", ... etc.
Maybe this question could be added: "Could the patch generate break-compatibility? (yes/no)" and so a search with that filter could be done.

The same for commits, add a keyword when potentially break-compatibility to make the search easier.
