Recreation of #348 because that PR is unmergable due to unresolved comments, even though the PR has no unresolved comments 🐛 .
Summary
This PR introduces a
CHANGELOG.mdfile to the Hyperlight repository to systematically track and document changes. The goal is for this file to be updated with each PR that contributes to the release notes. However, in practice, it will be manually edited by the individual responsible for creating a Hyperlight release.Motivation
The need for manual release notes arose from the limitations of our automatic release notes system. The current automatic notes were generated from PR titles, which often don't adequately reflect the changes in a manner that's easily consumable by users.
Changes
CHANGELOG.mdfile has been added to document key changes.CHANGELOG.mdand a full list of PRs with their titles at the end of the release notes.This approach draws inspiration from the release notes format used by Runwasi, as seen in this example.
After this merges, I will replace the old release notes in 0.2.0 with the new ones
