    -V, --version            Prints version information

OPTIONS:
    -C, --changelog <FILE>      A previous changelog to prepend new changes to (this is like using the same file for
                                both --infile and --outfile and should not be used in conjuction with either)
    -c, --config <FILE>         The Clog Configuration TOML file to use (Defaults to '.clog.toml')**
    -T, --format <FORMAT>       The output format, defaults to markdown (valid values: markdown, json)
    -f, --from <HASH>           e.g. 12a8546
    -g, --git-dir <PATH>        Local .git directory (defaults to current dir + '.git')*
    -i, --infile <FILE>         A changelog to append to, but *NOT* write to (Useful in conjunction with --outfile)
    -l, --link-style <STYLE>    The style of repository link to generate (Defaults to github) [values: Github, Gitlab,
                                Stash, Cgit]
    -o, --outfile <FILE>        Where to write the changelog (Defaults to stdout when omitted)
    -r, --repository <URL>      Repository used for generating commit and issue links (without the .git, e.g.
                                https://github.com/thoughtram/clog)
        --setdate <DATE>        e.g. 2020-01-01

    -w, --work-tree <PATH>      Local working tree of the git project (defaults to current dir)*

* If your .git directory is a child of your project directory (most common, such as /myproject/.git) AND not in the
current working directory (i.e you need to use --work-tree or --git-dir) you only need to specify either the --work-tree
(i.e. /myproject) OR --git-dir (i.e. /myproject/.git), you don't need to use both.

** If using the --config to specify a clog configuration TOML file NOT in the current working directory (meaning you
need to use --work-tree or --git-dir) AND the TOML file is inside your project directory (i.e. /myproject/.clog.toml)
you do not need to use --work-tree or --git-dir.
