Give credits in changelog

It is a good practice to mention contributors in release notes. See https://github.com/containerd/nerdctl/releases for example.

glab doesn't have release notes, but at least there is changelog. Here https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cli/-/releases/v1.53.0

Would be nice to get some recognition, For external contributors for sure. Mention nickname. Like..

  • f6525c00 fix(snippet): show friendly error for project snippet without repo (@abitrolly)

Problem to solve

As an external contributor I want to get my bragging rights link.

Proposal

Maybe go-releaser or whatever tool is used to release already supports this?

Further details

Maybe @leetickett-gitlab and @nick_vh want to put this into Handbook somewhere, for easy copy-paste into relevant projects.
