Ant target for autogenerating a changelog based on Git tags | |
Workflow: | |
1. Do all of your checkins for a given version. | |
2. When you're ready to officially create a new version, tag it using git tag, such as "git tag v0.3.0". | |
3. If you don't already have a file named CHANGELOG in the root directory, make one. | |
4. Run "ant changelog.update" | |
Assumptions: | |
1. You only use tags for version numbers, that's it. | |
2. You have a file named CHANGELOG that you want to auto-update. | |
3. You want today's date stamped in the CHANGELOG file/ | |
4. Your project name is "project". That's dumb, it should be something better. | |
