Description

As @rectalogic points out here #5722 (comment) a year ago it is helpful to see the exact changes of nested stacks in the aws console. Without that option you only see that a nested stack will change. With that option you'll get a link in the console to the changeset of the nested stacks. This would be very helpful for me. I even think setting IncludeNestedStacks: true as default does not harm.

Use Case

It's currently impossible to see changes of nested stacks even when using changesets.

Proposed Solution

You need to add IncludeNestedStacks: true here:

const changeSet = await cfn.createChangeSet({
