Comparing diffs between two prereleases is difficult #549

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

There is a fix we're looking to consume that has not yet been released yet: https://github.com/player-ui/player/pull/533

We're a few next releases behind, and need to understand the other impacts of upgrading to the next release containing the above fix.

The release for that PR when merged, failed -- so it was released on the next PR merged, 0.10.0-next.5. As you can see, the release notes for that don't even include the bug fix we want to consume.

Describe the solution you'd like

Ideally, prerelease release notes should contain all the changes since the last actual release.

We were also using GH to look at the commits that went in between the two tags: https://github.com/player-ui/player/compare/0.9.2-next.1...0.10.0-next.5

But it's fairly noisy and easy to miss changes that we are trying to understand. I would think enforcing squash commits could also help in the absence of complete prerelease notes.

Definitely agreed. Right now we are cleaning up the previous pre-releases from github but we should probably keep those around, at least until an actual release is made.
