 ## HEAD
 
-- When using custom reporters register the custom reporters *before* the default reporter.  This allows users to see the output of any print statements in their customer reporters. [#365]
-- When running a test and calculating the coverage using the `-coverprofile` and `-outputdir` flags, Ginkgo fails with an error if the directory does not exist. This is due to an [issue in go 1.10](https://github.com/golang/go/issues/24588) [#446]
-- `unfocus` command ignores vendor folder [#459]

 A Ginkgo release is a tagged git sha and a GitHub release.  To cut a release:
 
 1. Ensure CHANGELOG.md is up to date.
+  - Use `git log --pretty=format:'- %s [%h]' HEAD...vX.X.X` to list all the commits since the last release
+  - Categorize the changes into
+    - Breaking Changes (requires a major version)
+    - New Features (minor version)
+    - Fixes (fix version)
+    - Maintenance (which in general should not be mentioned in `CHANGELOG.md` as they have no user impact)
 1. Update `VERSION` in `config/config.go`
 1. Create a commit with the version number as the commit message (e.g. `v1.3.0`)
 1. Tag the commit with the version number as the tag name (e.g. `v1.3.0`)
