Generate a changelog: $ARGUMENTS

Step 1 — Gather Commits

bash
# Since last tag:
git log $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)..HEAD --oneline

# Or between two tags:
git log v<from>..v<to> --oneline

Step 2 — Categorize

Group commits by type using conventional commit prefixes:

Category Commit Types
Added feat
Changed refactor, chore
Fixed fix
Security security
Documentation docs
Testing test

Step 3 — Format Changelog

markdown
## [<version>] - <YYYY-MM-DD>

### Added
- <description of new features>

### Changed
- <description of changes>

### Fixed
- <description of bug fixes>

### Security
- <description of security improvements>

Step 4 — Write to Changelog File

Prepend the new entry to the changelog file (see project config for path). Keep the existing changelog entries below the new one.

Step 5 — Summary

Changelog for v<version>:
  Added:    X items
  Changed:  X items
  Fixed:    X items
  Security: X items
  Total commits: X

Rules

  • Use past tense for descriptions ("Added support for..." not "Add support for...")
  • Group related changes under one bullet point
  • Don't include merge commits or chore commits in the changelog unless significant
  • Link to issues or PRs where relevant
