Automate the listing of upgrade issues in the dev branch release notes

Hi devs,

While Listing upgrades in the release notes has been created a little while ago to discuss what would be the best way to present dependencies upgrades, I would like for now to just validate officially what has been the practice in the recent release notes: use a jira query instead of listing manually the dependency upgrade issues.

In practice, it means:

  • Adding something like the following to the RN template:
    {{velocity}}
    {{jira url="https://jira.xwiki.org" source="jql" style="list"}}
    project in (XWIKI, XCOMMONS, XRENDERING) AND issuetype = Task AND 
    fixVersion in ($affectedVersions) AND component = "Dependency Upgrades"
    {{/jira}}
    {{/velocity}}
    
  • Put N/A in the dependency upgrade issues for the RN documentation field.

So WDYT ?

+1 for me too.

Note that according to what I wrote in Listing upgrades in the release notes it seems I’ve fixed the issue for using jira scripting so we could use that too. But that’s a detail FTM.

PS: I think we can close
Listing upgrades in the release notes too.

+1, thank you!

The Release Note template has been updated.
