Problem description

Hi, I want to add a custom commands to generate a changelog based on git log.

This is the command I use to generate changelog:

git log --oneline --no-merges --pretty=format:"%s" START_TAG...END_TAG

I tried with this command:

[ { "caption": "Changelog", "command": "git", "args": { "argv": [ "log", "--oneline", "--no-merges", "--pretty=format:\"%s\"", "$select_tag", "...", "$select_tag" ] } } ] but there are two problems:

  1. sublime merge adds whitespace betweeen arguments, so "three dots" between tags wont work
  2. pretty-format requires quotation marks

Preferred solution

Add the ability to write arguments in a sintax like this:

"$select_tag_1...$select_tag_2" or "$select_tag...$select_tag" but in this last solution sublimeMerge has to differentiate inputs
