name: changelog-release description: Create changelog

Create a release commit

  1. Look at the diff against the origin branch
    • If on a feature branch already check against main/master
    • Otherwise compare against origin of main/master
  2. Update the CHANGELOG with these RULES:
    • Keep it minimal and easy to read for humans
    • No LLM talk
    • Dont get too much into the details about files
    • Do not mention what has been tested
    • Make the message contain semantic meaning on not just a description of the changed lines of code
    • Do not mention updating of changelog
  3. Create a commit with the commit message
    • Stage the changelog
    • Only use staged files
    • Do NOT ADD Co-Authored-By:
    • Do NOT override the author
  4. Create a feature branch in git flow convention
  5. Create a PR with description and title from the changelog
    • Use same rules as for the CHANGELOG
    • Do not include a section with the test plan

Rules:

  • When making a new commit just include the changelog with that commit otherwise create a commit just for the changelog
  • Do not mention updating of changelog
  • Do not mention any adding of tests or documentation this is self-explanatory

DONTS EXAMPLES:

# ❌ SELF EXPLANATORY TEST COVERAGE COMMENT
Added comprehensive test coverage for custom schema directory functionality

# ❌ SELF EXPLANATORY DOCUMENTATION COMMENT
- Documentation for bundling from custom schema directories
