fix: Handle null bullet point detection in update-changelog script#125
Conversation
The script was failing when trying to detect bullet point characters in changelogs that contained no existing bullet points. This occurred because the Where-Object filter returned null, and calling .Trim() on null caused a "You cannot call a method on a null-valued expression" error. Fixed by wrapping the variable in quotes to convert null to empty string before calling .Trim(), which effectively defaults to using "-" as the bullet point character. Added test case for this scenario to prevent regression. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
