Simple git changelog file generator

Project description

simple-git-changelog

PyPI - Status PyPI GitHub PyPI - Python Version

simple-git-changelog is a command-line tool for creating and updating a git project's changelog file.

To create your project's changelog file, run simple-git-changelog in your project's root directory:

$ simple-git-changelog

By default, the "CHANGELOG.md" file is created with your project's changes. For example:

## 2021-04-30

- [abcdf0](https://github.com/username/project-name/commit/abcdf0) most recent change

- [abcdef](https://github.com/username/project-name/commit/abcdef) previous change

Edit "CHANGELOG.md" as appropriate and commit. To update your changelog file later, simply run simple-git-changelog again. Change items for new git changes are added to the top of the changelog:

## 2021-05-01

- [abcdf1](https://github.com/username/project-name/commit/abcdf1) one more thing

## 2021-04-30

- [abcdf0](https://github.com/username/project-name/commit/abcdf0) most recent change

- [abcdef](https://github.com/username/project-name/commit/abcdef) previous change

Usage

options:
