v5.0 has been released but not reflected in CHANGELOG

[sfuerte]

The latest entry in CHANGELOG is for 4.3.0 - Released 2020-08-17.

Is it possible to put the full list of changes for 5.0?

Especially given that there are some breaking changes.

Thanks a lot in advance!

Apparently you did not read the first sentence from the changelog file at https://github.com/ansible-community/ansible-lint/blob/master/CHANGELOG.rst

I was considering removing the file as I was aware of risk of confusing people. On the other hand I am aware that the current release notes are incremental, meaning that they report only the changes since the previous release, regardless if it was a pre-release or not. So if you want to know all change made since last 4.x release, you will have to include the in-between release notes.

I will keep this open for a while as I want to gather some feedback from other users before making a decision. Keep in in mind that these release notes are automatically updated based on merged PRs and I do want to keep it this way, as it eases maintenance. The only manual operation that I do sometimes is to remove some totally uninteresting commits that may accidentally be added. Still, as you can see, the notes avery quite detailed.
