how to just create release notes based on release.yml containing only the info from the last latest release till the new one and not including everything from branch ? in simple terms how to set previous tag when creating release notes ?

Having this issue as well, every time a tag is created it includes the release notes from every previous version, makes this action unusable.

@waeljammal there is a pr opened https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/372 but not merged yet. Also on the pr comemts there is a way to do that, while using another action to create proper release notes, and parse them as body on this action. Ill give it a try.
