[Koha-devel] Minor update to atomicupdate files

[Renvoize, Martin]

Hi all,

With the push of 24131 we have a new method for reporting update success.
I have updated the skeleton.perl file under
installer/data/mysql/atomicupdate to match the new syntax but thought it
would be worth sharing here too.

The new syntax is:

NewVersion( $DBversion, XXXXX, "Description");

The final parameter can be either a string or an arrayref of strings in
which case each string will appear on its own line in the output.

Note: At the moment this is not a required change and any patches you have
already submitted with the old format will not fail QA. I will update them
upon push.

What does this change bring to the table I hear you ask?
1/ A slightly more concise syntax
2/ Nicely aligned multi-line descriptions
3/ A followup has already been pushed which adds timestamps to update lines.

Many thanks,

*Martin Renvoize*
