docs: rename changelog workflow input to "Branch to release"#6215
Merged
Conversation
The 'Update changelog' workflow input key is already 'branch' and is used semantically as a git branch throughout (checkout ref, PR base, and generated branch name). Update the human-facing description from 'Version to release' to 'Branch to release' to match.

Before / After
The
workflow_dispatchinput in.github/workflows/update-changelog.ymlwas labeled "Version to release (3.24.x, 3.27.x, master)", even though the value it accepts is a git branch and the workflow uses it exactly that way (as the checkoutref, the pull-requestbase, and part of the generated branch name).After this change the input is labeled "Branch to release (3.24.x, 3.27.x, master)", which accurately describes what the field is. The input key was already
branch, so no code references needed to change.How
Single-line edit to the
inputs.branch.descriptionstring in.github/workflows/update-changelog.yml. No behavioral change — this is a display-text-only update.Note for reviewers
The task also asked to ensure the
create-pull-requestaction is pinned to@v7. It already is, but the workflow uses thecfengine/create-pull-requestfork rather than upstreampeter-evans/create-pull-request. I left the org as-is since switching to upstream could be an unintended behavioral change (the fork may exist deliberately). Flagging for a human to confirm whether a switch topeter-evans/create-pull-request@v7is actually wanted.Generated by Claude Code
