Enhance existing release notes collection with a template #23743
Closed
Description
We need to enhance the existing release note collection process to collect more information at PR creation/pre-submission time:
- Create a new template for collecting additional release notes (Proposed new PR release note template. #24431, @david-mcmahon)
- template proposal: markdown allowed between some kind of begin/end markers
- Enhance existing collector tools to scrape the data from the template in the body of a PR (Initial commit of release automation tooling. release#1, @david-mcmahon)
- Doc updates to docs/devel/cherry-picks.md and docs/devel/pull-requests.md#release-notes (Update docs to describe new PR release-note block parsing. #25048, @david-mcmahon)
- PSA to community about new changes and pointers to updated docs (@david-mcmahon)
