@radix42 would like your opinion on whether we should start this doc fresh or what.....?

radix42 commented 7 years ago

I want to get the script that zcashco uses to generate that file from github commit history and use THAT to generate a current one for future releases

radix42 commented 7 years ago

then the commit counts will also be consistent if we are using the same script to generate them. i have been meaning to ping them and see where it is if it is in a public repo (i THINK it is? iirc)

@radix42 the script is zcutil/release-notes.py and it requires following the same pattern as Zcash, since it is powered by data in doc/release-notes/*, which seem to be the output of git shortlog since the last release. Alternately, I can write our own git script to generate this data the way we want.
