Changelog parser bug?

[Pi-C]

Consider this changelog:

Code: Select all

15	      (https://LINK-1)

The in-game parser doesn't like it:

Code: Select all

invalid changelog file, line 15 is a duplicate of line 9.

It's correct that these are duplicate lines, but they are inconsequential because they are mere continuations of the item lines preceding them -- they do not open a new category and do not begin with " - ". It is quite possible that such lines may legitimately contain duplicate content, e.g. links as in the example above, items in a custom list …

I think it is a bug that the in-game parser doesn't accept duplicate continuation lines. Could you exempt such lines from the duplicate-lines test, please?

At best, this is a minor issue

We have our rules, and you need to follow them

(If another dev comes and fixes it, I won't cry...)
