[ Feature Request ] Parameter to ignore commits from authors \ bots #287

Open pegasus-lynx opened 8 months ago

Description

Currently, there is ignore-commit-pattern which ignores commits based on a pattern search. However, I am facing a scenario, where I have commits from a bot that I want to ignore, and there are multiple patterns in the commit title. It will be easier if I could just mention the author name for ignoring commits directly from that author.

PS If there is some way of doing this, I am happy to use that.

You can currently do this using --append-git-log"--author=<author>" (untested), see also https://github.com/cookpete/auto-changelog/issues/226#issuecomment-1381135675. If this answers your question, please consider closing the issue
