Use Githubs Releases page

Currently it's only listed unter tags. Can't check all versions/changes at once etc.

Glad I'm not the only one! The iOS version has a properly working release notes page - https://github.com/openid/AppAuth-iOS/releases

This is important to see bug fixes and help convince team management that investing in upgrading the version is for our best interest, especially when a security vulnerability has been patched.

@pvegh - For a security focused library, please re-consider if effectively communicating security patches via standard means (The release page listing all changes on one page) is a requirement instead of an enhancement.

While I understand the request for convenience, the information, as explained by the OP, is listed under tags and we haven't felt this to be a priority. Github UI may be better in this regard as it requires you to:

  • click on the 3 little dots right next to the tag name to see the info or
  • navigate to the tag by clicking on it.

There is also git tag -n20 where 20 is the max number of lines to list from the message.
