Field-tested on netresearch/t3x-nr-llm v0.14.0: replacing the ## [Unreleased] heading with the new version but leaving the Keep-a-Changelog footer link-references untouched left a dangling [Unreleased]: ref (still pointing at v0.12.0...HEAD) and a missing [0.13.0] compare link — which the PR reviewer bot correctly flagged.

Augments Phase 1 of release-process.md: when updating CHANGELOG.md, repoint [Unreleased] to vNEW...HEAD and add [vNEW]: .../compare/vPREV...vNEW, not just the section heading.

Code Review

This pull request updates the release process documentation to clarify the steps for updating the CHANGELOG.md footer link-references. The feedback suggests wrapping literal link references and placeholders in backticks to prevent markdown parsers from treating them as broken links and to improve readability.

Important

The consumer version of Gemini Code Assist on GitHub is being sunset. Starting June 18, 2026, new organization installations will be blocked, and all code review activity will officially cease on July 17, 2026.
For more details on the timeline and next steps, please review the Help Documentation.

Keep-a-Changelog footer compare-links drift silently: repoint [Unreleased] to
vNEW...HEAD and add [vNEW]: compare/vPREV...vNEW when cutting a release, else a
reviewer bot flags the dangling [Unreleased]: ref (and a prior version's link
may be missing entirely).
