generate-changelog

Python CLI that builds a changelog from git tags and commits using flexible matching rules

Desktopfree

generate-changelog is a Python command-line tool that builds or updates a changelog from a project's Git tags and commits, classifying commits into sections using configurable regular expressions or metadata rather than requiring strict Conventional Commit syntax. Output is rendered through customizable templates and it includes built-in parsers for Jira, GitHub, and Azure DevOps issue references. It targets teams who want a well-organized changelog without enforcing a rigid commit message format.
