Did a quick review, what I would NOT do is to edit existing changelog, but add new entry for the change of naming
|
Many thanks, @fingolfin. I think I'm used to name it like that from the time it was named like that (just without the slash): Not sure were the slash is coming from, in my memories :) |
The Macintosh operating system underwent many name changes over the years, from being nameless to "System" to "Mac OS" to "OS X" to "macOS". But at no point in time was it ever called "OS/X" :-)
But why not? Would you not fix typos in them either?
OK, if you want a changelog entry for a typo fix, I am happy to add it -- except I have no idea how. I am guessing |

Lines 107 to 113 in cdb2e16 Hey. This is going to be the changelog for the next release. You can simply add yourself at the end of it. Changelogs can of course be typo-fixed, but I remember from other big open source projects that change logs are only about to be changed for present/future entries, not touching past entries. So I think that's a philosophy thing :) |

Hey @fingolfin. Can I help you with anything? |
|
I don't time to work on this outside of weekends. Anyway, this is a trivial search&replace change. Feel free to finish the PR in whichever way you want it, or to close it / do your own version of it. |

I've added the changelog entry after the merge. Many thanks @fingolfin for your contribution and support. :-) |
