"Prepare"... unless this is a pun about "pairing the exe with the assets" :P

Neat! Is there an example of what the source for this looks like?

I found relevant info at: https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/releasing-projects-on-github/automatically-generated-release-notes
The release.yml file is like a template sort of for the release notes from what I could gather. I tried to setup a defaultish template based on the tags that were currently setup/being used in the issues.
I believe the behavior should be the same behavior as if you edit a previous release, and in the notes, hit the auto generate release notes button thingy I believe, not positive though.
On my test branch it simply added a changelog dif between the versions, but I also didn't have any PR's or anything in the test branch I used to create it.
We should definitely look into customizing the release.yml more for sure.
