2021-05-10maint: update-NEWS: Sort packages prior writing to the data file....* build-aux/update-NEWS.scm (main): Sort packages. Maxim Cournoyer
2021-04-23build-aux: Relax the regexp used to match NEWS sections....A number of packages doesn't really make sense in the name of the section to be substituted. This change allows using simply '*** new packages' instead of '*** 1999 new packages', for example, and have the update-NEWS.scm script update it. * build-aux/update-NEWS.scm (write-packages-added) <regexp>: Do not care about leading white space in the name of the section. Maxim Cournoyer
2019-05-20maint: update-NEWS: Track "gcc-toolchain", not "gcc"....This is a followup to d78010b81ee6ef4fd8803082e2f401b9e55b44db. * build-aux/update-NEWS.scm (write-packages-updates)[important]: Replace "gcc" by "gcc-toolchain". Ludovic Courtès
2018-12-05maint: update-NEWS: Don't produce full package lists....The lists of new and upgraded packages in 'NEWS' had become way too long and redundant with what 'guix pull' reports. * build-aux/update-NEWS.scm (write-packages-added): Don't print ADDED. (write-packages-updates)[important, table, latest, noteworthy]: New variables. Print NOTEWORTHY rather than all of UPGRADED. (main): Print PREVIOUS-VERSION and NEW-VERSION. Ludovic Courtès
2018-09-02Add (guix describe) and use it to initialize '%package-search-path'....* guix/describe.scm: New file. * Makefile.am (MODULES): Add it. * gnu/packages.scm (%default-package-module-path): New variable. (%package-module-path): Honor 'package-path-entries'. * build-aux/update-NEWS.scm (main): Use %DEFAULT-PACKAGE-MODULE-PATH instead of (last (%package-module-path)). Ludovic Courtès
2017-05-18maint: Add 'update-NEWS' target....* build-aux/update-NEWS.scm: New file. * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add it. (GUIX_MAINTENANCE_DIRECTORY): New variable. (update-NEWS): New target. (.PHONY): Add it. Ludovic Courtès
