 The HelpHub includes a section for listing all files changed during a
 release. Generating this list of files is usually done by manually running
 an SVN or Git command.

 {{{
 svn diff --summarize https://core.svn.wordpress.org/tags/6.1.1
 https://core.svn.wordpress.org/branches/6.2 | grep '^M'
 }}}

 As an example, this gives a list of files modified from 6.1.1 to 6.2.

 Generating a list of files requires a level of technical knowledge
 (checking out a repository, running a CLI command), but it shouldn’t.

 When a new version is tagged, a GotHub Action should run and generate the
 list of files so that any contributor can use the list to update
 documentation in the HelpHub, or wherever else it’s needed.
