Two situations that spring to mind, if I look in our database I can
probably find more:
- When a series of revisions has to be undone in a follow up revision
it is nice to put the revision hash of the revision to which once
reverts in the Changelog. E.g.:
A -> B -> C -> D
D is a revision that undoes the changes in B and C. My Changelog
entry would be "Revert to A, because ..."
- When code changes get cherry picked and applied to other
revisions. E.g.:
A -> B -> C
D -> E
The Changelog entry for E could be "Apply the same changes made in B
and C."
This reminds me of a related question. Is there any way in which I can
find out which new hash maps to which old hash? I ask this, because I
wouldn't be surprise to find out we refer to hashes in external
documentation as well.
