Fixes #3926. Today every PR edits the shared
## Unreleasedsection ofCHANGELOG.md, so PRs that stay open collide on the same lines and constantly need changelog rebases.This adopts chloggen, the same tooling used by
opentelemetry-collectorandopentelemetry-collector-contrib, so each PR adds its own fragment file under.chloggen/that is folded intoCHANGELOG.mdat release time. Because every PR creates a new file, changelog merge conflicts are eliminated by construction.What's included:
.chloggen/TEMPLATE.yamlplusmake chlog-new/chlog-validate/chlog-preview/chlog-update(chloggen pinned to v0.30.0, matching the Collector).changelogCI job runningmake chlog-validate, wired into the build gate.## Unreleasedentries migrated into fragments (validated withmake chlog-validateand previewed withmake chlog-preview; yamllint and markdownlint also pass locally).Enforcement: CI validates fragment syntax only and does not require a fragment per PR. The
Skip Changeloglabel is documented as the convention for when/if the SIG decides to enforce fragment presence.Opening as draft to get SIG feedback on the approach before finalizing.
