I can understand why, since it found the changes pulled in from the maint branch before it found the v1.5.0-rc0 tag --- but it could be more than a little misleading. Is this something that can be fixed in any way, short of finding all of the tags reachable from HEAD and then doing a sort? That seems like a gross kludge, but I can't think of any other way of fixing it. - Ted
