Usage

  Usage: version [options]

  Options:

    -h, --help             output usage information
    -V, --version          output the version number
    -j, --json             just output a version as json
    -s, --stdout           output to stdout instead of file
    -f, --format <format>  format to output in [markdown, html]
    -o, --file <file>      changelog file to read/write

Process

1. Write your code
2. Commit your code using angular style commits
3. Test your code
4. Run logchange (globally) / Run npm run logchange (locally) / Run yarn logchange (locally/yarn)
5. Commit your package.json and CHANGELOG.md with a chore(Version): updating version and changelog message. - message doesn't really matter - as long as its a chore otherwise, it may increment your version the next time you run logchange

TODO

• fix issue with multiple version being bumped per execution.
• rewrite to support testing/coverage
• rework options to be a bit more intuitive
• add logchange scopes to iterate over the git log and return all the scopes already used
• create contributors template, automatically increment number of commits against each contributor
• add logchange current to output the current version
• add logchange next to output what the next version will be
• format the scopes to all start with a capital letter, regardless of what case was used in the commit
