He confuses changelog with release notes. Doesnt know how to name commits and probably doesnt know how to name symbols either. Skill issue and he’s sad, now in public. Move on…

The best thing that I'd used for auto-updated software with weekly updates was to prefix user-facing visible commits with "uv:" Then each week we search for them and either use the text as-is or massage it slightly. We even got it into the product itself in the Help/Release-notes menu.

Funny to ask to stop doing something I don't do or never even heard of. I typically only mark database schema migrations or other major things with special prefixes.
