eslint-plugin-react-hooks release numbering in "Releases" tab

[croraf]

On https://github.com/facebook/react/releases, eslint-plugin-react-hooks release notes are documented, like:

But the plugin has different release numbering (v2.0.1 for example) than react (v16.9.0). This is not reflected here in release notes.

We might want to add packages/eslint-plugin-react/CHANGELOG.md like we have in the other packages

But also this page I screenshot should be fixed.

Curious, why does this matter?

[nickserv]

Because you wouldn't be able to easy find the release notes for a particular eslint-plugin-react-hooks version (and vice versa)

[threepointone]

Yeah that’s fair. We should do better with this.

Just chiming in... just saw major release 3.0.0 come through and I am trying to find some release notes so I know what the breaking changes are.

I agree that these packages should have their own changelog.

In the meantime, for eslint-plugin-react-hooks, you can look at the history for the directory of the plugin source code here (there seem to be no breaking changes):

Yeah looking at the commit history in the package folder is the easiest way.

I bumped the major because we cut a version that is stricter and doesn’t let you call Hooks in a class. That can cause false positives, hence a major bump.

We might want to add packages/eslint-plugin-react/CHANGELOG.md like we have in the other packages

I think this is a reasonable suggestion because it is standalone. I’ll take a PR doing this.
