| PackageDescription | Releases is a Python 2+3 compatible `Sphinx <http://sphinx-doc.org>`_ extension
designed to help you keep a source control friendly, merge friendly changelog
file & turn it into useful, human readable HTML output.
Specifically:
* The source format (kept in your Sphinx tree as ``changelog.rst``) is a
stream-like timeline that plays well with source control & only requires one
entry per change (even for changes that exist in multiple release lines).
* The output (when you have the extension installed and run your Sphinx build
command) is a traditional looking changelog page with a section for every
release; multi-release issues are copied automatically into each release.
* By default, feature and support issues are only displayed under feature
releases, and bugs are only displayed under bugfix releases. This can be
overridden on a per-issue basis. |
