Summary By MatterAI

🔄 What Changed

This Pull Request updates the react-native-branch package version from 6.6.0 to 6.7.0. The core changes involve bumping the underlying native Branch SDK dependencies:

• Android SDK: Updated from 5.16.1 to 5.18.0 in android/build.gradle.
• iOS SDK: Updated from 3.10.0 to 3.12.1 in react-native-branch.podspec.

Additionally, the ChangeLog.md file has been updated to document these version bumps and the release of 6.7.0.

🔍 Impact of the Change

This update provides users of the react-native-branch library with the latest features, bug fixes, and performance improvements available in the newer versions of the native Branch Android and iOS SDKs. This is primarily a maintenance release for the React Native wrapper, ensuring compatibility and access to the latest native SDK capabilities. It is expected to be a non-breaking change for the react-native-branch wrapper itself, though users should review the release notes of the underlying Branch SDKs for any potential breaking changes or migration steps.

Tip

Quality Recommendations

1. The Pull Request body's 'Summary', 'Motivation', and 'Testing Instructions' sections are left as empty templates. For a release PR, it is crucial to provide a clear summary of the changes, the motivation behind them (e.g., what new features or fixes the updated SDKs bring), and detailed testing instructions to ensure the stability of the new release. Filling these out would significantly improve the PR's clarity and reviewability.

2. Consider adding automated checks or a more structured release process to ensure all necessary files (like ChangeLog.md) are consistently updated and that the underlying SDK release notes are reviewed for any breaking changes that might impact users of react-native-branch.

This PR looks good overall. It's a straightforward version update for the Branch SDKs on both platforms. I have one minor suggestion to ensure version consistency.

[matter-code-review]

🛠️ Code Refactor

Issue: The Android SDK version in build.gradle (5.18.0) doesn't exactly match the version mentioned in the changelog (5.18.1).
Fix: Update the Android SDK version to match the changelog entry for consistency.
Impact: Ensures version consistency across documentation and implementation, preventing potential confusion.
