What

Adds scripts/release_note_analyzer.py — a tool to monitor GitHub releases of key dependencies, extract changelogs, categorize changes, and flag breaking changes.

Why

Issue #137 requires a daily release note analysis pipeline to:

  • Monitor GitHub releases of key dependencies
  • Extract changelog information
  • Categorize changes (features/fixes/breaking)
  • Flag breaking changes for review

Changes

  • scripts/release_note_analyzer.py: Core analyzer
    • Fetches releases from GitHub API
    • Parses release notes with section-aware categorization
    • Detects breaking change keywords (case-insensitive)
    • Outputs structured JSON for downstream consumption
  • tests/test_release_note_analyzer.py: 6 unit tests covering categorization, breaking change detection, and edge cases
  • Outputs to stdout or --output file (e.g., metrics/releases.json)

Acceptance Checklist

  • Monitors GitHub releases (via API)
  • Extracts changelog (full body per release)
  • Categorizes changes (features, fixes, other)
  • Flags breaking changes (BREAKING, backward incompatible, removed, deprecated→removed)
  • Daily (cron job can be scheduled separately — script is ready)

Usage

python3 scripts/release_note_analyzer.py --repos numpy/numpy,owner/repo --limit 10 --output metrics/releases.json

With token (higher rate limits):

GITHUB_TOKEN=xxx python3 scripts/release_note_analyzer.py --repos owner/repo --limit 20

Closes #137
