Description

When Dependabot raises new PR's for ci-queue updates there is no information contained in the PR about what changed which forces a developer to dive into this project to understand what has happened.

Once inside this project, there is no CHANGELOG or Github releases which forces developers to manually inspect PR's or commits to understand what has happened.

This is a poor use of developer's time.

Adding a CHANGELOG or adding information to Github releases can streamline this process and give more confidence to consumers when updates occur.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the repository's commit history and prior Dependabot PRs to identify the changes consumers need summarized. Check the existing GitHub release history, then document the relevant changes in a CHANGELOG or release notes so future updates can be understood without inspecting individual commits.
