Starting from oq-engine 1.4, hazardlib 0.14.0 it is possible to add new items with the description of new functionalities and/or bug fixes to the debian/changelog file without breaking the continuous integration and including these items in the nightly-build packages changelog when merged.
New items in debian/changelog are mandatory for any pull request with new major functionalities and/or important bug fixes.
New items must be added at the top of the file.
