Multiple fragment types for same fragment (e.g. `.bug` and `.bugfix`)

[MaxWinterstein]

We have multiple developers and sometimes end up with changelog files like 123.bugfix.md and 123.bug.md.

I would love to have multiple fragment types grouped together.

Currently we use some CI task to verify no unknown fragments get committed, but I would love to see this as a feature.

Configuring multiple fragment types using the same name attribute just doubles the entry in the parsed changelog file.

Thanks for the feedback.

This would be nice to be part of towncrier check CLI.

I don't understand what is the issue here?

What is the expected behaviour and what is the current behaviour?

I know that sometimes, for the same work ID / ticket ID / issue ID, I need to have separate bugfix entries.

I do a hack and have 123.bugfix and 123.1.bugfix ...

Right now, the full content of a fragment file is rewrapped.

What I can think of, is that if there is an empty new line, then a separate bullet entry is created in the final NEWS file

So for a file like 123.bugfix

Description of the first bugfix
on a wrapped line.

Another description of another bugfix.

The NEWS will be like

Bugfix
------

* Description of the first bugfix on a wrapped line. [#123]
* Another description of another bugfix. [#123]

Relevant: https://github.com/twisted/towncrier/issues/619#issuecomment-2227483175 And with such a check you wouldn't have incorrectly named fragments slipping through.
