Question: How do I generate release notes for a tag that doesn't exist? #276

Open justynspooner opened 4 years ago

My last tag is 2.0.0.

I have committed a bunch of work since 2.0.0.

I haven't tagged 3.0.0 yet because we are still fixing minor bugs but I still want to generate a preliminary set of draft release notes so I can get an overview of what has changed since 2.0.0.

Is this possible?

Or even from a local tag that hasn't been pushed yet (which doesn't appear to work).

It's nice to start with draft release-notes before the release has been finalized.
