Generates and updates CHANGELOG.md files by analyzing git commit history based on conventional commit standards.
Automates the creation and maintenance of CHANGELOG.md files by parsing your git commit history. This skill understands conventional commit messages to automatically categorize changes into sections like Features, Bug Fixes, and Performance Improvements. It supports two primary workflows: automatically generating and inserting a new version section for a formal release, and generating entries for manual addition to an '[Unreleased]' section during daily development. This is ideal for teams looking to standardize their release notes, prepare for a new version, or simply document changes between commits.
