Some of these changes look pretty substantial - https://github.com/boostorg/mpi/commit/da602162b4b00e8e3134a991d0c836f10cfe0... for example, changes 54 files. Are these the kind of changes we should be making on the day before a release?
On the other hand, if I just do "git diff master..develop --name-status” I see far fewer changes.
So I guess I’m confused.
What matters is only https://github.com/boostorg/mpi/compare/master...develop which has 42 files changed (likely what your command outputs). Especially https://github.com/boostorg/mpi/compare/master...develop#diff-efe111aae207f5... is worth adding: Fixing an actual and potentially serious bug due to missing the element size in the size calculation. That commit you were referring to is titled: "Merge branch 'develop' of https://github.com/boostorg/mpi into develop", so this isn't an actual change but simply updating a local branch with the remote changes which somehow made it to the final commits but is essentially a no-op as those changes were done elsewhere. So basically the local develop branch wasn't rebased onto the remote branch but the remote merged, likely due to some force-pushing or so. There are some more like that :-/ Alex
