Documentation

README

Changelog Generator

Generate structured, user-facing changelogs from git commit history.

Workflow

Step 1 — Gather commits

Determine the commit range from the user's request, then fetch commits:

# Between tags/versions
git log v1.2.0..v1.3.0 --oneline --no-merges
# Since a date
git log --since="2024-03-01" --oneline --no-merges
# Since last tag (default when no range given)
git log "$(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)"..HEAD --oneline --no-merges

If there are no tags and no range specified, ask the user for a date or count.

Step 2 — Categorize each commit

Apply these rules based on the commit message prefix:
