Change-log Gitbook Plugin

A plugin for Gitbook that generates a change-log page based on git history.

How to use it

1) Configure the plugin in your book.json:

{
    "plugins": ["changelog"]
}

2) Create a new page for your change-log. The contents of this page should look something like this:

    {% date %}
    {% message %}
    {% files %}
        {% badge %}
        {% filename link=true %}
        {% changes truncate=true %}
    {% endfiles %}
{% endchangelog %} 

3) Update your SUMMARY.md to add a link to the change-log page.
