Where is the Changelog and Release Notes of git-scm

Where is the changelog and release notes of git-scm.

I checked https://github.com/git/git/tree/master/Documentation/RelNotes

But there, the latest one is 2.9.5.txt which is from 7 years ago.

I also checked https://git-scm.com/

Here, i could find only the latest Release Note.

I could not find all the changelog anywhere.

To give some context, This is to find answers to the questions like: in which version --reverse was added in git log.

>Solution :

The page you link to, this one:

https://github.com/git/git/tree/master/Documentation/RelNotes

is sorted alphabetically, not numerically.

A bit down in the page, you have this transition (as of 8th of April 2024):

...
2.44.0.txt           Git 2.44-rc2             2 months ago
2.45.0.txt           The fifteenth batch      3 days ago
2.5.0.txt            RelNotes: replace Gm...  5 years ago
2.5.1.txt            Git 2.5.1                9 years ago
...

so that is the right page, it’s just sorted a bit unexpected.

Once the numbers rise to 2.50.something, you’ll find those numbers below 2.5.something. So it’s some slight legwork needed to find the right release notes.
