Generate a changelog from git history.

Steps

  1. Find the last tag

    git describe --tags --abbrev=0 2>/dev/null || echo "no-tags"
    
  2. Get commits since last tag

    git log [last-tag]..HEAD --oneline --no-merges
    

    If no tags, get last 50 commits.

  3. Categorize commits by prefix:

    Category Prefixes
    Features feat:, feature:, add:
    Bug Fixes fix:, bugfix:, hotfix:
    Performance perf:
    Refactoring refactor:
    Documentation docs:, doc:
    Testing test:, tests:
    CI/CD ci:, cd:, build:
    Chores chore:, deps:, bump:
    Breaking Changes any commit with BREAKING CHANGE in body

    If commits don't use conventional prefixes, categorize by content.

  4. Generate CHANGELOG.md entry:

    markdown
    ## [version] - YYYY-MM-DD
    
    ### Features
    - Description ([commit-hash])
    
    ### Bug Fixes
    - Description ([commit-hash])
    
    ### Performance
    - Description ([commit-hash])
    
    ### Breaking Changes
    - Description ([commit-hash])
    
  5. If CHANGELOG.md exists, prepend the new entry at the top (after the title). If it doesn't exist, create it.

  6. Show the generated changelog to the user.
