Parsing Git Log

Changelog ships with a simple parser tool that will read the output of git log and output a list of commits grouped by their category. For more info on how to limit git log to only output the commits that are new to your next release, use git log <OLD_VERSION>..<NEW_VERSION> where OLD_VERSION and NEW_VERSION are git shas or tags.

git log | parse-git-log >> changelog.txt

ARGS

• --filter-out=cat1,cat2: will exclude the provided categories from its output
