HM is the reference software of the latest video coding stancd HEVC. The newest version is 12.1. I get the codes and compare this with the HM11.0rc1 on several sequences. And the HM12.1 gets some improvement. And I am curious about the changes of HM12.1. However, I can't find files like change log. Does anybody know how to get differences between them. Why would not the HM provide some file to explain the improvement of different versions?

You can read the commit log to see what was changed between versions. I personally use the git mirror of the repository, and it is available here (http://hevc.kw.bbc.co.uk/git/w/jctvc-hm.git/shortlog). You can see when various heads were merged into the main branch with the green markers.
