Actually some parts are already in there indirectly via the pointer to doc/release.md: $ private/generate-tag-summary --in-place But the "gbp dch" seems indeed missing (I also see no script calling that) except for a hint with "e.g. via `dch -r`", despite the switch to it happened in early 2019. Instead there's a lot of outdated stuff about no more existing lintian.debian.org in there. I'll try to cross-check what else is no more up-to-date in these two files as soon as I find time to work on Lintian again. (Hopefully rather soon.) What also should go into that checklist is running the private/post-release-version-bump script after the upload. It creates that "WIP (generated at release time: please do not add entries below.)" line and updates the version number in debian/changelog.
