.bumpversion.cfg:8

• bumpversion is configured to update cloudsmith_cli/data/VERSION, but the package version for PyPI is read from the repository root VERSION file (see setup.py). This makes it easy for future version bumps to desync the runtime CLI version vs the published package version. Consider adding the root VERSION file to .bumpversion.cfg (or otherwise consolidating to a single source of truth).

CHANGELOG.md:20

• The 1.11.2 changelog entry uses a level-2 heading ## Added, while other entries use ### Added (e.g., 1.10.3) under the version header. This breaks the heading hierarchy and can affect rendered structure/TOCs; please standardize the subheading level.
