  Description     : A Sphinx extension for changelog manipulation

Releases is a Sphinx extension designed to help you keep a source
control friendly, merge friendly changelog file & turn it into useful,
human readable HTML output.

Specifically:

 * The source format (kept in your Sphinx tree as changelog.rst) is a
   stream-like timeline that plays well with source control & only
   requires one entry per change (even for changes that exist in
   multiple release lines).

 * The output (when you have the extension installed and run your Sphinx
   build command) is a traditional looking changelog page with a section
   for every release; multi-release issues are copied automatically into
   each release.

 * By default, feature and support issues are only displayed under feature
   releases, and bugs are only displayed under bugfix releases. This can
   be overridden on a per-issue basis.

This package is a build dependency of 'twine'
I intend to maintain it as a part of DPMT
