Ask HN: How do you generate changelogs for repositories?
How do you generate changelogs in git repos? GitHub has a really good 'releases' feature that builds on tagging, but how do you create your changelog when you may have hundreds of commits where the messages are not all that relevant?
- svisser 10y agoThe changelog should be a document written by humans for humans. So you manually maintain the changelog while working on fixes / features and you add any remaining notes just prior to each release.
