We have lots of native apps, but I will never use that as an excuse to write generic “bug fixes” release notes. I like including good release notes both for our users and for myself later, as I look back on what we’ve shipped.
Still, it is a lot to keep up with. Lately I’ve been turning to Codex to get me started with a release notes draft. I use a prompt like this:
Please review all the git commits since the tag “release/3.8.4” and write some release notes for the major changes. Read the release notes from the web page here help.micro.blog/t/micro-b… and follow that style of what is important and how to phrase the changes.
It’s usually not quite right, a little too verbose, so I can then edit it to fit what I would’ve written by hand anyway. Saves a lot of time.
