Automatically generate change log from your tags, issues, labels and pull requests on GitHub. Fully automated changelog generation - This gem generates a changelog file based on tags, issues and merged pull requests (and splits them into separate lists according to labels) from octocat: GitHub. What’s the point of a changelog? To make it easier for users and contributors to see precisely what notable changes have been made between each release (or version) of the project. Why should I care? Because software tools are for people. "Changelogs make it easier for users and contributors to see precisely what notable changes have been made between each release (or version) of the project." Using Docker is an alternative to installing Ruby and the gem.

Features

  • Generate canonical, neat changelog file, with default sections that follow basic changelog guidelines
  • Optionally generate Unreleased changes (closed issues that have not released yet)
  • GitHub Enterprise support via command line options!
  • Customize issues that should be added to changelog
  • Custom date formats supported (but keep ISO 8601 in mind!)
  • Merged pull requests (all merged pull-requests)
