Description Jared Camins-Esakov 2012-03-19 19:33:22 UTC
Release notes up until 3.0.5 are included in the master repository, but later release notes are not. They probably should be, if only for historical reference.
Comment 1 Jared Camins-Esakov 2012-03-19 19:43:25 UTC
Release notes were created by the following commits:

Comment 2 Katrin Fischer 2013-04-14 09:20:02 UTC
Is this something we should take care of pre-release?
Comment 3 Katrin Fischer 2019-04-28 18:06:25 UTC
I am not sure how this could be solved, but it probably needs to be part of the release workflow, pulling the release notes created until a certain moment in.

It looks like release notes are included in misc/release_notes now, so this one is probably invalid.

However, it looks like only Koha 3.x release notes are added into Debian packages...
Comment 5 Katrin Fischer 2023-08-04 19:17:34 UTC
I don't believe this is true still:

https://git.koha-community.org/Koha-community/Koha/src/branch/master/misc/release_notes

We do have the release notes of all major releases in master, this makes sense, as the minor releases only contain backports. The release notes for these are part of the various branches.

I am closing this - please reopen if you disagree!
