-===== Release notes for 4.15.0 ===== 
  
-[Please note that this is a development release.]+===== Latest Release =====
  
-- New macro XDT_VERSION_INIT(SEMVER[, TAG])+{{rss>https://archive.xfce.org/feeds/project/xfce4-dev-tools 1 date 2h}}
  
-This macro takes care of setting up the version numbering. +[[https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-dev-tools/-/blob/master/NEWS|Read the CHANGELOG]]
-It will define the following macros based on SEMVER and TAG:+
  
-   - xdt_version +  * **[[https://archive.xfce.org/src/xfce/xfce4-dev-tools/|Download current release]]** (older versions of this component are also available here)
-   - xdt_version_major +
-   - xdt_version_minor +
-   - xdt_version_micro +
-   - xdt_version_tag +
-   - xdt_version_build +
-   - xdt_debug_default +
- +
-If TAG isn't specified, the xdt_version_tag and xdt_version_git +
-will be empty and xdt_debug_default will be set to "minimum", +
-otherwise the xdt_version_build will contain a git hash and +
-xdt_debug_default will be set to "yes" +
- +
-Example usage: +
- +
-  XDT_VERSION_INIT([4.15.3],[git]) +
-  AC_INIT([xfce4-someproject], [xdt_version()]) +
-  ... +
-  XDT_FEATURE_DEBUG([xdt_debug_default]) +
- +
- +
-- XDT_I18N macro will now automatically find the linguas if none are +
-specified during the autoconf run. +
- +
-- Install m4 macros in default search dir. This makes autoconf find the +
-macros by default. +
- +
-By setting version via XDT_VERSION_INIT and using XDT_I18N without +
-arguments, +
-this is no longer necessary to use a separate configure.ac.in and a +
-plain configure.ac can be used ! +
-A big thank to Natanael Copa (ncopa) for his work on this part ! +
- +
-- xfce4-dev-tools now also handle the CI (docker container, +
-.gitlab-ci.yml templates files etc) on our new gitlab instance. A merge +
-request or a push to master to any of our projects automatically trigger +
-a build. This will help us to catch errors quicker and have better +
-quality. Thanks to Jason Yavorska and Simon Steinbeiss. +
- +
-- New helpers are also available (xfce-get-release-notes, +
-xfce-get-translations, xfce-update-news) to help our maintainers to do +
-releases+
