+
+    Version-specific release notes (`7.8.0.adoc`, etc.) are generated from `src/changelog/*/.release-notes.adoc.ftl`.
+    Auto-generation happens during `generate-sources` phase of Maven.
+    Hence, you must always
+
+    1. Find and edit the associated `.release-notes.adoc.ftl`
+    2. Run `./mvnw generate-sources`
+    3. Commit both `.release-notes.adoc.ftl` and the generated `7.8.0.adoc`
