Closed mainameiz closed 4 years ago

mainameiz commented 4 years ago

Hello everybody! First of all thanks to making such a great gem. It is very helpful :)

I have a couple of questions/suggestions:

1) Do you follow semver (https://semver.org/)? 2) Please, consider making a changelog/history file. It will help other people to upgrade between versions more convenient. There is a great guide about how to make a helpful changelog file - https://keepachangelog.com/.

Thanks a lot. It is a really really handy :)

  1. I am trying to follow that ruleset, but in order to avoid inevitable mistakes and following complaints like "but you said that you do follow it, but in fact you don't!!!111" I do not explicitly declare so.
  2. I do not a) consider duplication to be useful (if you REALLY need to see what's changed, use git diff), and b) do not have time to write the same thing I just wrote in Ruby, in human language -- that's doubling the work, you know.

As always, this is free software; if you want to help me -- feel free to join the project.
