While working on the software code I’ve been keeping a list of changes over time, using the software tracking tool git. I thought I’d share that “changelog” here for posterity, as I won’t include it in the initial “release” of the software package for public consumption.
These entries may not be entirely clear as they’re usually shorthand summaries of the work that’s just been done. Sometimes they represent just a line or two of code changes, and sometimes they represent many new functions and features coming in all at once. But here they are (in reverse chronological order as of today) in case they’re useful:
