glslang/CHANGES.md
Ben Clayton fbe9a23baf Generate build information from CHANGES.md 
This PR significantly reworks the way glslang is versioned.

Instead of committing changes to the `GLSLANG_MINOR_VERSION` define in
`glslang/Public/ShaderLang.h`, and using `make-revision` to generate
`GLSLANG_PATCH_LEVEL` in `glslang/Include/revision.h`, all version
information is now derived from the new `CHANGES.md` file.

`CHANGES.md` acts as the single source of truth for glslang version
information, along with a convenient place to put all release notes for
each notable change made.

`CHANGES.md` is parsed using the new `build_info.py` python script.
This script can read basic template files to produce new source files,
which it does to read the new `build_info.h.tmpl` to generate (at build
time) a glslang private header at
`<build-dir>/include/glslang/build_info.h`.
I've written generators for each of the CMake, Bazel, gn, and
`Android.mk` build scripts.

The new version code conforms to the Semantic Versioning 2.0 spec.

This new version is also used by the CMake rules to produce versioned
shared objects, including a major-versioned SONAME.

New APIs:
---------

* `glslang::GetVersion()` returns a `Version` struct with the version
  major, minor, patch and flavor.

Breaking API changes:
---------------------

* The public defines `GLSLANG_MINOR_VERSION` and `GLSLANG_PATCH_LEVEL`
  have been entirely removed.
* `glslang/Public/ShaderLang.h` and `glslang/Include/revision.h` have
  been deleted.
* Instead, `<build-dir>/include/glslang/build_info.h` is created in
  the build directory, and `<build-dir>/include` is a CMake `PUBLIC`
  (dependee-inherited) include directory for the glslang targets.
* `<build-dir>/include/glslang/build_info.h` contains the following
   new #defines:
   `GLSLANG_VERSION_MAJOR`, `GLSLANG_VERSION_MINOR`,
   `GLSLANG_VERSION_PATCH`, `GLSLANG_VERSION_FLAVOR`,
   `GLSLANG_VERSION_GREATER_THAN(major, minor, patch)`,
   `GLSLANG_VERSION_GREATER_OR_EQUAL_TO(major, minor, patch)`,
   `GLSLANG_VERSION_LESS_THAN(major, minor, patch)`,
   `GLSLANG_VERSION_LESS_OR_EQUAL_TO(major, minor, patch)`
*  The CMake install output directory contains a copy of
   `build_info.h` at: `include/glslang/build_info.h`
*  Python3 is now always required to build glslang (likely always
   required for transitive dependency builds).

Revision history for glslang

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file. This project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

10.15.3847-dev 2020-06-16

Breaking changes

  • The following files have been removed:
    • glslang/include/revision.h
    • glslang/include/revision.template

The GLSLANG_MINOR_VERSION and GLSLANG_PATCH_LEVEL defines have been removed from the public headers.
Instead each build script now uses the new build_info.py script along with the build_info.h.tmpl and this CHANGES.md file to generate the glslang build-time generated header glslang/build_info.h.

The new public API to obtain the glslang version is glslang::GetVersion().
