Context

!git log $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0 2>/dev/null || echo HEAD~20)..HEAD --oneline

Instructions

  1. Read CHANGELOG.md to understand current state and format.

  2. If $ARGUMENTS is provided, add it as a - entry under ## Unreleased.

  3. If no arguments, analyze commits since last tag (see context) and draft entries as a flat bullet list under ## Unreleased (no subcategories).

  4. Entry format:

    • Flat - bullet list (no ### Added/Changed/Fixed sections)
    • Imperative mood: "Add" not "Added"
    • Code in backticks: `ClassName::method()`
    • Under 100 chars per entry
    • Skip non-user-facing commits (chore:, CI, internal refactoring)
    • Prefix breaking changes with BREAKING
  5. Edit CHANGELOG.md to add the entries. Present draft before writing if generating from commits.
