🌐 Web query:

In GitHub .github/release.ymlfor generated release notes, doeschangelog.excludetreatlabelsandauthorsas independent exclusion criteria (OR behavior)? Specifically, ifauthorsincludesdevsy-app[bot], are all PRs from that author excluded regardless of labels?

💡 Result:

Yes—changelog.exclude.labels and changelog.exclude.authors are independent exclusion filters, and a PR is excluded if it matches either exclusion list. GitHub’s documentation for automatically generated release notes says changelog.exclude.labels is a list of labels that exclude a pull request from appearing in release notes, and changelog.exclude.authors is a list of user or bot login handles whose pull requests are to be excluded from release notes [1][2]. Since both are described as separate exclusion criteria at the same level (changelog.exclude), including an author like devsy-app[bot] in changelog.exclude.authors will exclude all PRs opened by that author from the generated release notes, regardless of the PR’s labels [1][2]. (Important nuance: the docs also support per-category exclusions via changelog.categories[*].exclude.*, which similarly define exclusions within a category scope; but for your specific question about changelog.exclude, the behavior is “exclude by labels OR exclude by authors” in effect.) [2]

Citations:

exclude.authors excludes all bot PRs independent of labels.

The authors field on Lines 5–6 will exclude every pull request from devsy-app[bot], regardless of labels. This is independent from labels filtering—a PR is excluded if it matches either criterion. If the intent is to exclude PRs only when they are labeled skip-changelog, remove the authors section.

In @.github/release.yml around lines 5 - 6, The current exclude.authors entry
(the authors field containing "devsy-app[bot]") causes all PRs from that bot to
be excluded regardless of labels; to make exclusion conditional on the
skip-changelog label, remove the authors entry under exclude (delete the
authors: - devsy-app[bot] block) so only the exclude.labels rule applies, or
alternatively move the bot name into a labels-based rule; update the release
configuration by editing the exclude section to drop the authors key so
label-only filtering (e.g., exclude.labels: ["skip-changelog"]) is used.
