Description
The default configuration for Github autogenerated release notes is suboptimal for our project.
Proposed solution
Let's use the information below to improve it:
https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/releasing-projects-on-github/automatically-generated-release-notes#configuring-automatically-generated-release-notes
Alternatives considered
Organize/edit release notes by hand. Some hand editing will probably always be required, but the closer we can get the generated notes to ideal, the less editing we'll have to do.
