Description
I find it very hard to keep track of what changed between releases, and what I need to do to migrate my configuration. It regularly happens that some config location changes, or the name of options, or something like that, and we have to find the respective PR to see what actually changed.
The release notes/Changelog is not exactly helping, case in point for 1.3.7:
- Revert "replace user-aliases with user_aliases"
- replace user-aliases with user_aliases
- better fix for Small issue with syntax highlighting in directories with "%20" in their name #1265
- Revert "sanitize dir before assigning to prompt"
- sanitize dir before assigning to prompt

- Fixed move of default conemu.xml to the vendor folder
How am I supposed to understand what is necessary from user perspective to migrate configuration? Am I supposed to check all PRs and see what exactly has changed?
It would be great to get a "Changes Required" chapter in the release notes, with easy-to-grasp required actions such as "Rename you user-aliases file to user_aliases", "Move your conemu.xml to the vendor folder", "Add the following line to Profile.ps1 " or whatever.
