supporting fast distributed development teams without introducing additional development processes. The goal is to encourage detailed and accurate release notes for every release. Reno uses git to store its data, along side the code being described. This means release notes can be written when the code changes are fresh, so no details are forgotten. It also means that release notes can go through the same review process used for managing code and other documentation changes. Reno stores each release note in a separate file to enable a large number of developers to work on multiple patches simultaneously, all targeting the same branch, without worrying about merge conflicts. This cuts down on the need to rebase or otherwise manually resolve conflicts, and keeps a development team moving quickly. Reno also supports multiple branches, allowing release notes to be back-ported from master to maintenance branches together with the code for bug fixes.
