Increased the maximum length of the description field from 256 to 1024 characters.

256 is far too short for most change logs.

Increased the maximum length of the 'changes' field from 256 to 1024 characters.

Average GitHub changelist length
GitHub release notes / changelists typically run:

  • Simple releases: 50-150 chars ("Bug fixes and performance improvements")
  • Typical releases: 200-500 chars (3-8 bullet points)
  • Detailed releases: 500-1500 chars (many features, breaking changes, migration notes)

The median is roughly 300-400 chars based on common open source projects.

I will bump up to 512 which will cover~90% of real-world changelists.
