git diff gramps.pot

If there have been changes, you'll need to commit gramps.pot and ask translators to update their .po files before you can make a release.

Release name

Changelog and NEWS file

Create the changelog files:

git log gramps-5.2.1.. --pretty --numstat --summary --no-merges | git2cl > ChangeLog
git log gramps-5.2.1.. --pretty --numstat --summary --no-merges -- po/*.po | git2cl > po/ChangeLog
