Add a change log
The feature
We should support some kind of changlog.
Why?
We currently have 111 deployments/builds and I think each build has some kind of change in the code. And easier to read the changes instead of going through all the pull request or deployments.
Examples and inspiration
I agree some kind of changelog may be good. I think we should try to figure out what kind of changes are worth capturing.
For example, I don't think a change like in #540 is worth capturing, nor simple bug fixes, but a nice feature like #372 is something I think we should take note of.
We can set some preset categories. Like: Countries, Bug fix, maintenance,... (Similar to the labels)
Some categories would be good. But as I said, I don't think countries bug fixes or maintenance would be very interesting. To find a use case, what was the problem you tried to solve when opening this issue?
I'm curious if we can generate this from our commit history, and if not make it so that we can do so in the future.
It's tricky right now, but it should be possible. Either we can go full in on a standard like Conventional Commits, or we can just say that features and breaking changes should have some special prefix.
Yeah, let's identify what we would like to use the change-log for and go from there.
