Description
It would be nice to have an automated check that a pull request includes a new changelog entry.
I keep being surprised that this isn't here already.
Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
Inspect the repository's existing CI configuration and changelog conventions first. Determine where pull-request checks are defined and how changelog entries are identified; done means a pull request without a new entry is detected while one with an entry passes.
