  • Add create-release job to publish_dev.yml that creates pre-releases
  • Add create-release job to publish_experimental.yml that creates pre-releases
  • Add update-release-notes job to publish_master.yml that generates cumulative changelog
  • Changelog is automatically generated from conventional commit messages
  • Commits are categorized into Features, Bug Fixes, Refactoring, Documentation, and Maintenance
  • Pre-releases are tagged as dev-X.X.X and experimental-X.X.X
  • Stable releases include all changes since last stable release

@sparkison dunno if you like this or not, but I always wondered why you manually did this and why dev and experimental did not get pre-releases with changelog so everyone could see what is going on.

probably because I'm too ocd, lol! I always cleanup the release log and like to have a personal touch to it, but automating would be nice 😉 and the dev and experimental weren't as clean as the regular releases, sometimes the changes are really minor and don't warrant a release log (for quick bug fix pushes for example)

I'll circle back and take a look though!
