A list of commits is not a changelog!

The Simpson's "Don't make me tap the sign" meme. The sign says, "A list of commits is not a changelog."

@nedbat but what about a list of PR titles?

Ned Batchelder

@ogi Better, but still not a changelog. Tell me about the things I need to know. Give me the implications, and links to docs. "Updated dependency xyz to v4.3" is useless.

@nedbat was mostly joking as the changelog for is a list of PRs, but in categories highlights, bug fixes, performance improvements, api changes, etc etc ... I know it's not great , but I've found that to be the fastest way to put something resembling something coherent.

One thing that I do hate about working in open source (while parenting and working a full time job) is that I know what I need to do to make something as good as the users deserve, I just don't have the time to do so.

I know what you mean. There's so much you want to do and so little time.
