better_git_changelog v1.6.3

better_git_changelog

Make a changelog from git commits, tags, and releases

npm install --save better_git_changelog
better_git_changelog

What's this, then?

Other changelog making tools were too complex and didn't do what I want. One was close, but didn't cleanly handle the mix of 1.0.0 and v1.0.0 in the history, and didn't give links to relevant branches.

So, I made a zero-config CHANGELOG tool.

This is generally intended to be used as a step in the ends of build chains. The author uses it by making a command changelog in the scripts block of any project's package.json, then writing better_git_changelog in there, and can now issue npm run changelog to receive bacon.

What does it look like?

There's an example here.
