AI-Driven Changelog Generator for Git with Conventional Commits

AI-Driven Changelog Generator for Git with Conventional Commits

The AI-Driven Changelog Generator is a specialised skill for creating changelogs using your existing Git history based on the Conventional Commits specification. Utilising the script changelog_gen.py, it reads through commit logs within a specified range and produces a neatly organised Markdown file that aligns with the Keep a Changelog format.

What this skill does

• Reads Git commit logs within a specified tag range or up to the latest commit (tag..HEAD).
• Parses commit messages according to Conventional Commits.
• Maps commit types to changelog categories: 'feat' to 'Added', 'fix' to 'Fixed', 'perf/refactor' to 'Changed', and 'breaking' to a separate section.
• Generates a Markdown changelog with dates and links to specific commits.
• Supports additional flags to include or exclude hidden commit types such as 'docs', 'ci', and 'chore'.
• Outputs the changelog to stdout or a file, as needed, for release or review processes.

Who it is for

• Software developers who manage codebases using Git and adhere to Conventional Commits.
• Development teams who need an efficient method to prepare changelogs for releases or internal reviews.
• Individuals responsible for compiling release notes or documenting changes in a project.
