I wrote a tool, changelog-maker to generate this changelog. It uses the metadata to cross-reference the PR-URL, include that in the summary and also note anything that's labelled with semver* labels so they stand out (see the entry for 77f35861d0 above).

The only concern I have with this is that it makes the plain-text version of the CHANGELOG.md file very unweildy and difficult to read.. e.g. one line will look like this:

* [[`fb28c91074`](https://github.com/iojs/io.js/commit/fb28c91074)] -
**src**: fix add-on builds, partially revert 8aed9d66 (Ben Noordhuis)
[#868](https://github.com/iojs/io.js/pull/868)

So .. before I go putting this in CHANGELOG.md, please comment if you think this is going to be a problem. My preference is for this to be a useful Markdown doc, but perhaps it will bother others enough to object!

Re 1.3.0: I think we'll give this ~2 days before it's released if there are no objections.

isn't it better so sort those commits by category ?

@YuriSolovyov yeah, that'd be nice, but I suspect that the ordering matters more than being able to view them as a group. I'll do a "Notable changes" that has things grouped.

Also, the above list is in reverse order, I've decided that this probably isn't a good idea so I'll switch it before publishing.

well, that was a "minimal" proposal, that just require tweaking your script/tool
I think creating "Notable changes" requires more work since you have to always pick changes that seem "notable", and this is more work to do.
thanks for looking at it anyway.

RE: ordering vs categorizing. What I found worked well for me in the past
is a combination of both. Categorize them but within each category, order
by commit date.

Regarding #826: Please mention in the release notes that TLS (and in turn HTTPS) now rely on a stronger default cipher suite which excludes the RC4 cipher. If users still want to use RC4, they have to specify their own ciphers.

Also, I'd appreciate if someone could review #845 before this release. This should be in the docs for this release. Edit: It's merged!

I'd appreciate if someone could take a look at this issue #877 before this release, because by my opinion this is a serious bug originating from 0.11.15, that makes debugging io.js applications a huge PITA.

@unbornchikken I'll make sure we talk about it today in the Tracing WG meeting but we don't hold up releases for stuff like this. But, we're releasing every week so once it is fixed it'll land in a new release quite soon :)

Gonna take me a while to get used to that I don't have to wait for two years for a new release. :) Thanks.

OK, no criticism of the heavy Markdown, and on thinking it through further -- if you want a cleaner list then just git log for yourself, a CHANGELOG should be more helpful! So in lieu of further feedback I'm pushing ahead with experimentation.

As per @aheckmann's suggestion, I'm trying commit grouping here and it's actually quite nice:

I might hold up release pending resolution of #894 for a few more hours (partly because I'm kind of busy right at this moment anyway!). If it's not resolved within the next 8 or so hours then I'll get the release out and just note that in the Known Issues section and push for a patch release ASAP.

FYI this is with changelog-maker --group, there is also a --simple that strips out all of the Markdown cruft for easier terminal viewing.

CHANGELOG.md header so far, unfortunately I can't find any other notable changes to mention here, does anybody else want to highlight things?

2015-02-20, Version 1.3.0, @rvagg

Notable changes

  • url:
    • url.resolve('/path/to/file', '.') now returns /path/to/ with the trailing slash, url.resolve('/', '.') returns /. #278 (Amir Saboury)
  • tls:
    • tls (and in turn https) now rely on a stronger default cipher suite which excludes the RC4 cipher. If you still want to use RC4, you have to specify your own ciphers suite. #826 (Roman Reiss)
  • assert:

Known issues

  • Surrogate pair in REPL can freeze terminal #690
  • Not possible to build io.js as a static library #686
  • process.send() is not synchronous as the docs suggest, a regression introduced in 1.0.2, see #760 and fix in #774 still pending resolution.

https://iojs.org/download/nightly/v1.2.1-nightly201502201bf91878e7/ RC2 I suppose, should be pretty close to what 1.3.0 ends up being

Going to do the release dance now.

Under "Known issues", putting:

Let me rephrase that tls entry in the notes:

  • The default cipher suite used by tls and https has been changed to one that achieves Perfect Forward Secrecy with all modern browsers. Additionally, insecure RC4 ciphers have been excluded. If you absolutely require RC4, please specify your own cipher suites.

Calling dns.setServers() while a DNS query is in process can cause process crash on a failed assertion

Missing a 'the' before 'process', and 'to' after it :)

Well, it's not that bad, I just wanted to expand on the reason for the tls change, but yours gets the RC4 message through too.

@mikeal oop, it was an issue with me building from source and my computer's symlinks. My fault, thanks!
