Description

Hi,
I'm config to use semantic-release to automate release for my Repo. But I met an issue when the first time I run release because the changelog store a lot of commit( Because it's first time release).
Error message is below:
z4302864069420_fd41c9a41d22a920c04172a5200949ae

Any suggestion or config option for @semantic-release/github to minimise the body when call API github createRelease ?

Research direction

Start with the @semantic-release/github release path that calls the GitHub createRelease API, then review how the first release's changelog becomes the request body. Use the issue thread and the reported error to determine whether a configuration option or handling change is expected; done means the publish step no longer fails on an oversized body.
