section. You can generate a list of contributors with checkAUTHORS.pl.
For example:
- $ git log --pretty=fuller v5.13.2..HEAD | \
+ $ git log --pretty=fuller v5.13.${last}..HEAD | \
perl Porting/checkAUTHORS.pl --who -
Look at the previous L<perldelta> for how to write the opening
paragraph of the Acknowledgements section. To get the amount of
changed files and number of lines use this command:
- $ git diff --shortstat v5.13.8..HEAD | \
+ $ git diff --shortstat v5.13.${last}..HEAD | \
./perl -Ilib -nE 'my ($files, $insert, $delete) = /(\d+)/ga; say "$files files and ", $insert + $delete, " lines changed"'
Making sure to round off the number of lines changed.
