Summary

A script wrapping eix and Gentoo's gitweb to retrieve Changelogs

As it's not possible anymore to track Changelogs using equery changes, this simple wrapper script tries to get info via Gentoo's official gitweb (RSS feed thus it's limited to 10 entries).

Usage

go build
./gentoo-changelog-tracker --limit 5 vim
./gentoo-changelog-tracker --limit 1 --full emacs

Parameters:

  • --limit : limit output to n entries. Can't show more than 10 entries anyway
  • --full : get patch for each entry and print diff instead of just the summary
