I hear what you are saying, there is a risk that auto-generated release notes end up as PR-title soup. I put a lot of effort in my script to mitigate against that.
If you are willing and interested enough to take a quick look, here is what my script generated for our 2025 changelog (no hand-curation yet, this is the raw output):
I am curious: does this still seem too noisy in your opinion, or is it getting closer? And what would you want to see for breaking changes/migrations to make it actually useful?
I now have 2024 & 2025 generated; to fully hand-curate two years of history just wasn’t practical, so I’m trying to get the "80% draft" automatically and then curate over time.
