Template talk:GitStatus
Updating and improving the status template(s)
{{GitStatus}}, {{GitStatus:closed}}, {{GitStatus:frozen}} and {{GitStatus:open}}
As they are largely undocumented, do not use parameters and some data, like the next release and the dates is repeated many times and have to be edited in many places, maintenance is a hassle. In essence they could be more automated and better documented so that maintaining them would be more straight forward.
Some things I could see useful is having the current and next releases as separate templates (they could be useful in other places as well) and having to edit the dates only in special circumstances and doing that through parameters in those cases. Also, why four separate templates?
Are there other functionality you guys always have wanted but have not figured out or taken time to add?

- Ah, I had completely forgotten about that. Thanks Gijs.
- There seem to be some things that could be using parameters:
- backlog, next_changelog
- Link to the next changelog
- next_version
- Next version
- closed_until
- Forcing a closed state by giving the (estimated) end of the closed state.
- frozen_until
- Forcing a frozen state by giving the (estimated) end of the frozen state. For situations like the release of 3.2(?).
- There seem to be some things that could be using parameters:
- The year used by the defaults could and probably should be completely automated using
{{CURRENTYEAR}}
.
- The year used by the defaults could and probably should be completely automated using
- The template would be shown just like before for now.
- A draft of the documentation of the functionality is for now available in my sandbox.
- Any comments or further ideas are most welcome!
