Robin Schneider submitted an update to the
latex-git-log
package.
Version number: 1.1.0
License type: gpl3+
Summary description: Typeset git log information
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
### Feature
- Allow to pass file path. This is explained in the git-log(1) manpage as follows: Show
only commits that are enough to explain how the files that match the specified paths
came to be.
- Make generated file https://reuse.software/ compliant. If you use REUSE, it will not
complain about the generated file.
### Fix
- --user and --repo flags where not included in URL
- print commit hash instead of artificial version.
Previously, the script generated artificial version numbers by counting each commit
starting by 1. This is very unusual when using git. The --startcommit flag is remove as
well.
### Cosmetic
- Automate release process with https://bazel.build/
This achieves (partial) reproducible builds of the zip file I upload to CTAN. I was
able to generate the bit-by-bit same ZIP file on
two different computers both running Debian 12. This includes generation of the
example.pdf file with lualatex. Next step is to make use of https://nix-bazel.build/ to
achieve full hermetic and reproducible builds independent of the host OS. See
https://reproducible-builds.org/ for more details.
