Hi, Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0], we noticed that pytest could not be built reproducibly. This is because some tool is appending the current date to the changelog.html file within the generated documentation: -<section id="pytest-release-unreleased-draft-2024-07-26"> -<h3>pytest 8.3 [UNRELEASED DRAFT] (2024-07-26)<a class="headerlink" href="#pytest-release-unreleased-draft-2024-07-26" title="Link to this heading">¶</a></h3> +<section id="pytest-release-unreleased-draft-2025-08-29"> +<h3>pytest 8.3 [UNRELEASED DRAFT] (2025-08-29)<a class="headerlink" href="#pytest-release-unreleased-draft-2025-08-29" title="Link to this heading">¶</a></h3> <p>No significant changes.</p> It's not entirely clear which tool is adding this. tag_date=0 is set in setup.cfg, and I don't immediately see how the sphinxcontrib-towncrier might be embedding the date either. Either way, if we force is_release in the Sphinx conf.py, then this section simply disappears. A patch is attached for this.
