I think it would help if the "Commit Messages and NEWS Entries" subsection of the Developer's Guide said something about where in the ordering new Misc/NEWS entries should be added (e.g. at the top or bottom or by importance): http://docs.python.org/devguide/committing.html?highlight=news#commit-messages-and-news-entries The only reference I could find was an indirect reference in the section about the Developer Log: http://docs.python.org/devguide/developers.html |

The whole file is ordered with newest on top (newest Python version), so I guess it’s implicit for all committers that sections are also ordered with newest on top. It does not actually matter; the contents of one “what’s new in Python W.XyZ” are not ordered. A nice trick to make Mercurial’s automatic file merge work is to put your entry after the first or the first two entries, so that if you commit, then pull new changesets and merge, the merge will success automatically. |

Patch attached. I moved the discussion of NEWS entries to a section before the discussion on commit messages because previously, the commit message discussion referenced NEWS entries before they had been discussed (and not vice versa). This seems clearer to me. Let me know if I have mischaracterized what is customary, and I can change the wording. |
