Release notes?

[hughperkins]

I see there are multiple versions of semver, 1.0.0, 2.0.0, etc. I dont see any releases on this github repo, or release notes. Where can I find those? If they don't already exist, I feel it might be useful to create those? (and if they do, then maybe make them easier to find?)

Yeah, AFAIK we don't have any changelog right now (and creating them for existing tags is somewhat hard).
See #976 for ambiguity after v2.0.0.

For better visibility, I've created GitHub Releases for existing tags: https://github.com/semver/semver/releases
Hope these help you check related commits!

[hughperkins]

Ok. I mean, I was hoping for more of a summary of what changed between 1.x.x and 2.0.0 for example, rather than simply a list of commits. I feel like it could be good for this repo to set a good example, considering this repo's topic is strongly related to releases :)

[hughperkins]

Note that if you copied the tags into branches, then it would be straight forward to use the github 'Compare' to compare the two versions.

Note that the notes on GitHub Releases are auto-generated! I hope someone could write down some more things but I couldn't find any discussion or something else other than commits...

@hughperkins I just posted some history notes on the 2.0.0 spec (#976 (comment)). WIP: going back further and into more detail.

@hughperkins The full history, since mojombo handed everything off to haacked, can be found here: https://github.com/semver/semver/commits/master/semver.md

Changes tend to accumulated over here on semver/semver and then get dumped in batches into the official document(s) posted over on semver/semver.org.
