We addressed git tags in the hackmd doc and we were not very thrilled with the
idea. It seems fragile (parsing/regex) and if the changelog is included in the
git tag, packagers still have to maintain 3 different changelogs.

Thanks :)
It's a bit of a tricky situation since we tend to consider both release and
changelog separately but they are also very much related since the release
appears in the changelog.
So if we want to keep the current changelog format, we need to consider them
together (of we accept to change the structure of the changelog)
