Thanks for putting this togther! I know how much work this can be :D I noticed a few small things.
The usability improvements and bugfix section has been growing kind of large. Those are pretty hard to seperate but there is a lot of stuff in there now that I would categorize ass minor features that gets a bit lost between the bugfixes which not eberbody might read trough. For example the ability to have multiple runtime directories is a good example IMO. Not really that important and it's also good as is but might make the changes a bit more organized and break up that on really large list.

Yeah I agree. I've been reserving the features part for really large stuff but I think it's actually ok to move all features under that header that aren't covered otherwise (commands for example). I think we can probably eliminate the LSP configurations section since that mostly overlaps with the new languages section |
Yeah both of those changes sound like good suggestions 👍 |
This has a lot of overlap with the 'new languages' section with newly supported LSP configurations. Smaller changes to LSP configurations are not so common so I folded those into the 'updated languages and queries' section.

@the-mikedavis I noticed every time you had to write this by looking at the logs, even though writing it from scratch will be better for the reader, but it is a lot of work, should we add an unreleased section so each new feature change needs to be written to that so you don't have to spend so much time on this? Or do you have an automated way to do it?

see #4150 for previous discussion. I think the points raised there were pretty good. I could comeup with a solution which would somewhat automate it but I think Mikes point about that being an unnecessary effort still applies

Should we add EOF for this?

We could but we would need to add some string trimming to the build file for helix_loader (and helix_term IIRC). For simplicity I just left the newline out
