chore(create-release-pr): bump architect to v8.3.0 (RC changelog aggregation) - #243
Merged
Conversation
…ggregation architect v8.3.0's 'prepare-release' aggregates release-candidate changelog sections into the promoted stable section on an RC -> stable promotion. Because consumer repos call this reusable workflow at @main, bumping the pin here makes the behavior available to all projects on their next release run.

architect
v8.3.0'sprepare-releasenow aggregates release-candidate changelogs on promotion: on an RC → stable promotion, it merges every## [X.Y.Z-rc.N]section (plus the movedUnreleaseddelta) into the promoted stable section, ordered by Keep a Changelog category, with a note under### Changed. This makes the promoted stable GitHub release page show the full change set instead of the often-empty delta left after the RCs were cut.The logic lives in the architect binary (giantswarm/architect#1379), which already owns
CHANGELOG.mdwriting — no workflow logic needed here.Reaches all projects
Consumer repos run a devctl-generated thin caller (
.github/workflows/zz_generated.create_release_pr.yaml) that references this reusable workflow at@main. So merging this bump makes the behavior available to every project on its next release run — no devctl regeneration or per-repo change required. The architect CircleCI orb is a separate artifact and is unaffected (it only doeschangelog-lint, notprepare-release).Notes
Supersedes the previously-explored in-workflow shell approach (#239, closed).
