…releases For CalVer projects the publish issue changelog now uses bold author names (`**author**`) instead of `@author` to avoid pinging many contributors on every regular-cadence release. The committed CHANGELOG.md is unaffected and keeps clickable @-mentions. CalVer is detected from either the CLI argument (`craft prepare calver`) or the config (`versioning.policy: calver`).

The same
changelogBodyfeeds bothCHANGELOG.md(written earlier, wants@-mentions for clickable links) and the Actions file output (wants bold mentions to avoid pings). Re-generating would require duplicating expensive GitHub API calls or refactoring the memoization layer. A targeted regex on the well-definedformatChangelogEntry()output is simpler and equally reliable.
