git-chglog is a CHANGELOG generator implemented in Go that produces changelog files from Git history, with support for conventional commit styles, customizable templates, and Jira integration. The project is deprecated and users are directed to the actively maintained git-cliff instead.
Use cases
- generate a CHANGELOG.md from git commit history
- create changelogs following keep-a-changelog format
- generate release notes from conventional commits
- group commits into changelog sections automatically
- generate changelogs with Jira issue references
- automate changelog generation in CI
When to choose
- you are already using git-chglog in an existing pipeline and do not want to migrate yet
- you need its specific Jira integration or template configuration in a legacy setup
When to avoid
- you are starting a new project - use git-cliff instead, as this repo is deprecated
- you need bug fixes or new features, since the project is no longer maintained
