If the add-on is hosted on AMO, you just need to enter text into the Version Notes field when uploading a new version (or editing an existing one).

Otherwise, you need to specify a value for |em:updateInfoURL|in the update manifest, which should point to a HTML file on your server.

Hello,

this is a question about the Firefox addon manager and where the
developer of an addon has to put the change log in order to be displayed
after an update of that addon inside the addon manager.

It is unclear how the process of the addon manager being able to
retrieve the change log of an updated addon works.

I got pointed to this list by a Mozilla person. I am not subscribed to
this, but I'll be able to check the archives.

I asked to include the change log so the addon manager would display it.
[1] Now the question is what a developer has to do in order to make this
work.

Thank you in advance for explaining it or pointing to exiting
documentation, I have not found.

Kind Regards,
Sebastian
