The website is supposed to update itself automatically when we push
stuff, so things like release notes etc get automatically generated.
>From tools/release/README.md:

    Verify that the release notes, which are built from the CHANGES file
    in the release, have been updated. This is done automatically by the
    commit-hook, but if you see a problem, try the following steps:

        cd /var/www/openssl
        sudo -u openssl -H make relupd
        sudo -u openssl ./bin/purge-one-hour

This didn't happen unfortunately. When I ran "make relupd" manually I got:

make: *** No rule to make target
'/var/cache/openssl/checkouts/openssl/CHANGES', needed by
'news/changelog.txt'.  Stop.

That particular make target is related to the *master* CHANGES file
(there are similar targets I think for other branches).
