Description

I had something like this:

+ Revert "Revert "Revert potentially confusing "is default" changes"" [f1464e22] TODO DELETE?

I probably should not leave TODO comments while I'm working on the changelog, but releasable can be smart enough to detect things like this.

Research direction

The issue mentions releasable and provides a malformed changelog line ending in “TODO DELETE?”; start by locating releasable’s changelog validation entry point. Reproduce the example and clarify the expected detection or report, since no file or test is named. Done means trailing garbage like this is detected reliably.
