The release notes are generally a direct reflection of the git log. So, ease the burden of maintaining the release notes by using the git log to determine what needs to be added.
Currently only non-dev items are required to be matched to a git commit but the goal is to account for all commits.
The git history cache is generated from the git log but can be modified to correct typos and match the release notes as they evolve. The commit hash is used to identify commits that have already been added to the cache.
There's plenty more to do here. For instance, links to the commits for each release item should be added to the release notes.
This report replaces the lcov report that was generated manually for each release.
The lcov report was overly verbose just to say that we have virtually 100% coverage.
