package / changelog refuses such a pull request. Tests, documentation and CI ship nothing and are exempt, which is why this change itself needs no entry. The rule is bin/require-changelog of the .github repository, a script with a bats suite at 100 percent of its lines.

Test plan

The check runs on this pull request, which touches only .github/, and must pass by reporting that nothing that ships changed.
After merge: add package / changelog to the required checks on main.

A change that ships and carries no changelog entry cannot be installed, so it never reaches an appliance. That happened today in confconsole: the Instance menu and the console mark were merged with no entry, the code was on the default branch, the gate was green, and the image did not have it. `package / changelog` refuses such a pull request. Tests, documentation and CI ship nothing and are exempt, which is why this change itself needs no entry. The rule is `bin/require-changelog` of the `.github` repository, a script with a bats suite at 100 percent of its lines. ## Test plan - The check runs on this pull request, which touches only `.github/`, and must pass by reporting that nothing that ships changed. - After merge: add `package / changelog` to the required checks on `main`.
