(Unofficial) Changelog

Would non-developers be interested in a summary of changes that go into the repo? I wouldn’t mind compiling a list monthly. I’d like to stay more up to date myself with all the little fixes/features that go in.

Here’s February, let me know if I missed anything!

- Mod QoL updates
- Fix: advance button doesn't open in a new tab if viewing a finished game
- Byo-yomi periods remaining now show in zen mode
- Game view more responsive on mobile (safe-area-inset-*)
- Fix: sorting on board size now works on the Observe Games page
- Accessible theme added for red-green colorblind users
- Metadata attributes added to support more advanced board customization
- Accessibility: darker gold for supporter names in light mode
- Fix: middle-clicking on username in game history now only opens one page.

Note: these are only the front-end changes. AFAIK only anoek could tell us what happened when on the back end.

It could be nice to note who made each change?

Especially if something goes wrong with it! :japanese_ogre: (Is this the most evil emoji we have? Seriously???)

I would love to be able to see the changes when they happen. Thanks for sharing.

Then create a GitHub account and follow OGS, or else keep this link open in a tab and watch for changes

Yes, I like to know what bugs have been fixed and what new features have been added to the products and services that I often use. Perhaps all the update descriptions could be in one thread or subset of this forum so we could explicitly subscribe to them?

The issue organisation page under projects also looks interesting :slight_smile:

Subscribe to this thread if you’re interested, I’ll just keep posting here.

It’s interesting that the open ranking bugs are buried in there, rather than at the top…

Not ignoring this - I definitely want to give credit where credit is due, but I also want to keep the focus of the changelog on the actual changes. Another smaller issue: I don’t know all the GitHub<->OGS usernames. That said, I encourage people reading this to check out the PR list (Merged Pull Requests | March 2021) to see who all is contributing :slight_smile:

Great! I was hoping for that to happen.
To be perfect, a list a little bit longer with changes and especially bugs fixed before these (let say like from 6 months ago?) would anticipate questions and help answering more in the forum.
Thanks anyway for the good job

Thanks for posting this. I found it a long time ago and then couldn’t find it again. Github really isn’t designed for non-coders. Anyway it shows the list of issues that are gathered together in relation to tournaments.

It can also be a good place to look for an existing issue if key-word search isn’t working for you.
