Direct commits will be not visible in Release Notes. + +## Release Notes + +Only Pull Request wits status **Merged** will be visible in Release Notes. + +We use GitHub Release Notes. + +We use the [Release Drafter Action](https://github.com/marketplace/actions/release-drafter) +for automatically preparing Release Notes. + +Default labels configurations are in [maven-gh-actions-shared](https://github.com/apache/maven-gh-actions-shared/blob/main/.github/release-drafter.yml) project. + +## How To Use Issue and Pull Request Details? + +### Assignee + +Committers can assign an GitHub Issue, Pull Request to a specific committer that person seems +to be well-placed to address it. + +Merged Pull Request should be assigned to committer who merge it. Review Comment: I kinda agree that it does not seem a mandatory information. Assigning is imho, mostly about letting other people know that you're working on this issue / PR so that we don't end up with another committer also working on the same thing. Setting the assignee when the PR is merged won't help with this problem. The committer responsible for the PR is the one who merges it, and we already have this information in the git log. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
