[TYPO3-dev] [TYPO3-v4] What has been fixed in which release?

[Ernesto Baschny [cron IT]]

Hi,

starting with Git/Gerrit it got a bit more difficult to really see what
Bugfix was ported to which release of TYPO3v4. Well, it was also
difficult before that (tedious comparison of ChangeLogs).

Since we have so many cool ways of querying information from Git, I
build a small script that presents an overview of merges that happened
on the releases we are still maintaining.

	http://www.typo3-anbieter.de/typo3-merges/

This allows us to see:

1) what bugfix we might still want to backport from master to older
branches.

2) (more important): in some cases these backports were explicitly
desired by the original author (including a "Releases:" tag in the
commit message for master). If those are still pending, they are listed
as "TODO" in the table.

3) (most important!) what bugfixes we have commited to 4.5 or earlier
which are *not yet* applied to 4.6.

The table is updated three times a day, maybe someone (besides the
release management...) might find it useful.

Note: only commits with unique (and correct) "Fixes:" or "Resolves:"
lines in the commit message can be displayed here, because the issue# is
the only thing that "links" the merges together.

Cheers,
Ernesto
