Conversation
Document passing --only <package-name> to pnpm chronus version during a hotfix release so only the hotfixed package(s) are bumped and only their change files are consumed. Without --only, unrelated pending change files on the release branch are consumed and unrelated packages get bumped.

Documents passing + '--only ' + to + 'pnpm chronus version' + during a hotfix release.
Why
On a + '
elease/*' + branch there are often unrelated pending change files (tcgc, benchmark, playground, website). Running + 'pnpm chronus version --ignore-policies' + without + '--only' + consumes ALL of them and bumps unrelated packages. Passing + '--only ' + bumps just the target package(s) and consumes only their change files — so you don't need to know or manually remove the other pending change files.
Changes
Doc-only change ( + '.md' + files are excluded from chronus change detection, so no changeset needed).
