+i# Changelog
+
+This file includes a history of past releases. Changes that were not yet added to a release are in the [changelog.d/](./changelog.d) folder.
+
+<!--
+⚠️ DO NOT ADD YOUR CHANGES TO THIS FILE! (unless you want to modify existing changelog entries in this file)
+Changelog entries are managed by scriv. After you have made some changes to this plugin, create a changelog entry with:
+    scriv create
+Edit and commit the newly-created file in changelog.d.
+If you need to create a new release, create a separate commit just for that. It is important to respect these
+instructions, because git commits are used to generate release notes:
+  - Modify the version number in `__about__.py`.
+  - Collect changelog entries with `scriv collect`
+  - The title of the commit should be the same as the new version: "vX.Y.Z".
