NEWS -> tags (create rich tags)
Is the scope
- Creating a tag for the latest NEWS version granted that tag does not exist.
- Creating a tag for all NEWS versions without a git tag? I guess not. If it were the case, one would need to look for commits "Bump the version to..."
Also related to #331 (but then what's not related to that issue)
@krlmlr I need some clarifications (see first comment above)
Converting plain tags to rich tags with a commit message, I suspect.
how would these plain tags have been created in the first place? Does one of your repos have this problem?
Seen in https://github.com/ClaudioZandonella/trackdown, tags after v1.3.0 are missing.
Can we somehow leverage git praise -- NEWS.md to identify good candidates? The output could be a script that creates the tags, and also a shortlog of the 5 or so commits before or after the relevant change.
Much easier with the 🐦 object.
