Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by tracing the release action that edits the top-level pull request comment and inspect how its release range is determined. Done means the comment includes a link labeled "Commits Since Last Release" comparing the previous release tag with the current branch.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Priority: Wishlist

Ideally editing the toplevel comment with something like:

---
[Commits Since Last Release](https://github.com/elementary/wingpanel/compare/2.2.5...master)

It would make it easier for reviewers to verify that release appdata contains all the changes etc
