Description

Feature Request

Summary

A CHANGELOG.md file would help users understand what changed between versions and make upgrade decisions easier.

Motivation

When upgrading dependencies, developers need to know:

  • What bugs were fixed
  • What new features were added
  • Whether there are any breaking changes
Suggested Format

Follow the Keep a Changelog convention:

# Changelog

## [Unreleased]

## [1.2.0] - 2024-01-15
### Added
- New feature X
### Fixed  
- Bug with Y under Z conditions
### Changed
- Behaviour of Z is now more consistent
Additional Context

This is purely a documentation change with no code impact.

Research direction

Start with the Keep a Changelog convention linked in the issue and review the repository's existing version history before editing. Create CHANGELOG.md with an Unreleased section and categorized entries for relevant changes; done means the file documents version history clearly and follows the requested format.
