Itʼs not automatic, but the ‘customize-changed’ function displays the
user customization options that have been added or changed between some
(specified) past version of emacs and the running version.
The drawbacks are:
- You just see a buffer full of options, not a narrative like a NEWS
file that groups changes logically and/or in order of importance.
- It only works for emacs core, not packages (but bug#31383 is a request
to change that).
- As mentioned it is not automatic (though Iʼm sure that there are
people for whom an automated change announcement itself would be
considered a drawback...).
Just FYI...
