When Dependabot updated actions/checkout to v3.0.0 in my repository, it only shows the changelog up until v2.3.1.

The text is largely copied from https://github.com/actions/checkout/releases

Alternatively the CHANGELOG.md file could be deprecated and removed in favor of the releases on GitHub.

Change log files have a lot of value when you are distributing your source code, but this does not really leave the GitHub eco-system - I presume.

The currently situation of releases and file not being in sync is just confusing.

Great work by @bquorning btw. but it is hard work to keep things in sync.

it is hard work to keep things in sync.

I’m sure someone can write a GHA workflow to copy release information into the Changelog (or vice versa). Or change Dependabot to make its PR descriptions from GH releases. 😄

@bquorning I could actually use that - I will sleep on it
