To update changelog and TODO.md from git history, you roll forward architectural and operational findings embedded in recent commit bodies into structured documentation entries. This process consolidates commit batches into a single docs update, preventing context loss between development waves.

Documentation roll forward is the process of converting architectural findings from recent commit batches into structured TODO.md and CHANGELOG.md updates. It ensures operational discoveries are persisted into canonical docs after fanout waves complete rather than getting lost in commit history.

You deduplicate architectural follow-ups by using TODO.md as the canonical table source and applying idempotent automation. This ensures each finding appears once in the open follow-ups table and moves items to closed when resolved, preventing duplicate entries across commit batches.

Yes, you can update E2E test coverage backlogs by extracting route and spec closure signals from commit bodies. The documentation roll forward aligns coverage backlogs when commit messages indicate new test closures, keeping tracking tables current.

The best way to consolidate ad-hoc commit batches is to run an idempotent roll forward across three or more commits. It categorizes findings, deduplicates against existing TODO.md entries, and outputs a single consolidated docs commit update rather than scattered documentation changes.
