This is because #9063 was merged without a changelog.d file.
We can of course modify the release notes, but I wonder if this warrants more exposure.
I was under the impression this feature is still somewhat experimental, and its further evolution depends on what early adopters find they would benefit from. So it could go either way but probably the balance weighs toward encouraging said early adopters.
It's already documented in the rtd manual, so it's not hidden anyway.
@hasufell Let me understand, what if your expectation w.r.t. to fixing this issue? The cabal-install-3.12.1.0 tarball is out and cannot be changed. Do you think making a changelog entry for 3.12.2.0 is a good solution? Thanks.
You can fix it in:
Not sure how many people care about the tarball.
We've already retroactively edited release notes: https://github.com/haskell/cabal/pull/10134
I also note that we (deliberately) point people to the changelog files in master
in preference to pregenerated files, e.g. on Hackage. In fact, I think the files in the tarball just point you to https://github.com/haskell/cabal/blob/master/Cabal/ChangeLog.md and https://github.com/haskell/cabal/blob/master/cabal-install/changelog.
If there's nothing to be done, then feel free to close.
