Development record
The release changelog composer writes a fix to a surface that did not exist at the anchor tag as a Fixed line saying the behaviour 'no longer' happens, so a release's notes describe a fix to something no earlier release had. v0.15.1's section has such lines for abcd status and the cloud scripts, all new since v0.15.0, because each record carries impact: fix and nothing ties an entry's section to whether its surface existed at the anchor.

'A status fetch reads an app's push ... no longer asked about again' (iss-2610161928560772) concerns `abcd status`, which did not exist at v0.15.0. The three cloud lines ('no longer reported as started', 'no longer reports a refused commit', and the author identity line) concern scripts/cloud, which `git ls-tree v0.15.0 -- scripts/cloud` shows did not exist then either. A reader infers the features shipped earlier. The 'no longer' wording also contradicts the section's own preamb…
