[changelog]
# use git-cliff for changelog generation
# we can call it in pre-release-hook.sh or here if cargo-release supports it directly
# actually, better to handle it in pre-release-hook.sh
# or use the [changelog] section if available in the version being used.
# Let's add it to the pre-release-hook.sh for maximum flexibility.
