The blessed :octocat: GitHub Action, for publishing your :package: distribution files to PyPI: https://github.com/marketplace/actions/pypi-publish

Project mention: PyPI new user and new project registrations temporarily suspended | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-05-20

> Recently I've seen someone on Reddit trying to automate the creation of PyPI projects through GitHub Actions. The person was complaining that the first deployment couldn't use an API key for that project since it didn't exist. So I'm not surprised some people are trying to do the same for malicious purposes.
Sorry for the tangent, but: you can do this now! If you use trusted publishing, you can register a "pending publisher" for a project that doesn't exist yet. When the trusted publisher (like GitHub Actions) is used, it'll create the project[1].
All of this is supported transparently by the official publishing action for GitHub Actions[2].

Manage the release notes for your project.

Project mention: Changelog-Driven Releases | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-23

I don't really like writing the change log automatically from commits. I think those both have a slightly different audience and thus need different wording.
I know the frustration of merge conflicts on the change log file.
Right now, I'm creating change logs by hand which is time consuming to do on release time. I'm considering switching to using towncrier or something similar, where you have a changes dir with one file per change for creating change logs --> https://towncrier.readthedocs.io/
