Hi,
Sorry for the latency; just catching up on the post-ICFP mail queue.
In the GHC git repo how do I figure out which commit belongs to release 8.2.1. I cannot find 8.2.1 in "git tag" output. I tried "git log" and searching for 8.2.1 but there seems to be no definitive comment marking 8.2.1.
Releases are tagged with the ghc-$VER-release naming convention. You should find a tag for every release since 7.2.1. For instance, $ git tag | grep ghc ghc-7.10.1-rc1 ghc-7.10.1-rc2 ghc-7.10.1-rc3 ghc-7.10.1-release ghc-7.10.2-rc1 ghc-7.10.2-rc2 ghc-7.10.2-release ghc-7.10.3-rc1 ghc-7.10.3-rc2 ghc-7.10.3-rc3 ghc-7.10.3-release ghc-7.10.3a-release ghc-7.11-start ghc-7.2.1-release ghc-7.2.2-release ghc-7.4.1-release ghc-7.4.2-release ghc-7.6.1-release ghc-7.6.2-release ghc-7.6.3-release ghc-7.8.1-release ghc-7.8.2-release ghc-7.8.3-release ghc-7.8.4-release ghc-7.9-start ghc-8.0.1-rc1 ghc-8.0.1-rc2 ghc-8.0.1-rc3 ghc-8.0.1-rc4 ghc-8.0.1-release ghc-8.0.2-rc1 ghc-8.0.2-rc2 ghc-8.0.2-release ghc-8.1-start ghc-8.2.1-rc1 ghc-8.2.1-rc2 ghc-8.2.1-rc3 ghc-8.2.1-release ghc-8.3-start Cheers, - Ben
