Description

In my project, I have a CHANGELOG.txt which I update before releasing. In my custom action, I then add a version line to this file. But, for this to work, the CHANGELOG.txt must be committed first because of the working-copy-check. I don't want to use the ignore option as other changes must still be checked. Could a whitelist option be added so some files are left out of this check?

Research direction

Start by locating the WorkingCopyCheck implementation and the existing ignore option or configuration handling. Add a whitelist path that excludes only the named files while continuing to check all other working-copy changes, then verify the behavior with the relevant tests or release-check command.
