From GitLab 14.0.0 onwards, [CHANGELOG.md](../CHANGELOG.md) is generated
|
|
|
|
by parsing [Git trailers](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-interpret-trailers)
|
|
|
|
in commit messages.

# Changelog archival
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The current major release is always in [CHANGELOG.md](../CHANGELOG.md) at the
|
|
|
|
root of the repository.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
From GitLab 10.0.0 onwards, we store all changelog entries for a major release
|
|
|
|
in their own file in this directory. For instance, the changelog entries for the
|
|
|
|
10.X series of GitLab are in [archive-10.md](archive-10.md). Releases prior to
|
|
|
|
10.0.0 have their changelogs archived in [archive.md](archive.md).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changelogs for GitLab Enterprise Edition features (all tiers) are in the
|
|
|
|
corresponding `-ee` files, such as [CHANGELOG-EE.md](../CHANGELOG-EE.md) and
|
|
|
|
[archive-12-ee.md](archive-12-ee.md).
