[LTP] LTP version in ChangeLog not updated?

[LTP] LTP version in ChangeLog not updated?

[Sandip Bhattacharya]

I just cloned the LTP git repo from SF and ran the suite. Strangely, the report 
showed the LTP version to be an old one. Is something amiss?


$ git log -1

Updating the ChangeLog is a manual procedure (shouldn't be, but it is).

Hi Garrett,

It is not a major issue at all. Just that the HTML report for the
latest stable show the LTP version to be older than the stable build
date. That looks a little odd when I claim at work that we are using
the latest LTP stable. :-P

BTW, for stable builds, do you have a tag or a commit number
documented somewhere for the git commit used as the basis of the
release? Right now whenever a test fails where it shouldn't, I am
doing a whack-a-mole fix from the log of the file involved. If there
is a git tag or commit number for the stable, I can look at all the
commits from that time onwards to incorporate as patches into my srpm.

Thanks,
 Sandip

Adding tags to git for stable releases is IMHO good idea.

The LTP present in SF is the latest stable one and  nothing is missing. 
The reason for getting older version in HTML report is probably the 
'Version' file present in the LTP tree is having older version entry. I 
will make sure that this file is updated in the next release.

Thanks, Shubham
