Autogenerate changelog off of git commits and tags

[grigi]

I tried 3 different libraries, and this one generates the second-best docs, but it doesn't require you to manually manage github releases. Unfortunately it's a little hacky :no_mouth:

I also only found 3 libraries in my search. There are probably more :shrug:

It generates a changelog that looks like this:

right now i release by putting a tag, can i continue to do that?

Yes, I made it work with the minimum friction based on what you're doing. Just tagging in the vX.Y or vX.Y.Z format will mark a version.

That's why the one that generated the nicest docs lost, as it would require a workflow change.

I mean, this is decent enough for no extra effort: https://saq-py.readthedocs.io/en/latest/changelog.html
