0.62.0 changelog #156

Closed kelset closed 4 years ago

kelset commented 4 years ago

This is the draft PR for the changelog of 0.62, based on the script ./changelog-generator.js -b v0.61.5 -c v0.62.0-rc.0.

I've started opening this so that we can start tweaking it/preparing it/remove any commits that should not be here, so that when we reach 0.62.0 the workload will be smaller.

Thanks @turnrye for the review! I've updated the PR accordingly, and also updated it match rc1

Something we should call out is that in 0.62, it is required to specify either useNativeDriver: false or useNativeDriver: true. Animated will warn if it is not specified. The commit making this change didn't include a Changelog (whoops!). https://github.com/facebook/react-native/commit/5876052615f4858ed5fc32fa3da9b64695974238

As part of this release we will also need to update the TypeScript types for that flag to mark it as required cc @alloy and @acoates-ms who have been working on getting TypeScript to support different types for patch releases.

btw @alloy should we just kill this branch and re-generate the changelog using the new&improved script?

I'm ok with that outcome

alloy commented 4 years ago

@kelset Ah yes, that would be a good idea indeed. Do you wanna give it a try and provide feedback about the tool?

kelset commented 4 years ago

Will do! Let's start by closing this one - sorry everyone, we'll try to keep track of your feedback for the followup PR 👍
