Grouped by tag for the full history (HELP WANTED)

Open ghost opened this issue 8 years ago • 8 comments

Is it possible to have sections grouped by tags from the beginning of the log history? currently enabling tags will only show changes till the last tag but I want to have the changes grouped by those tags.

This would be a nice improvement... It is not possible curently.

- `tag = false`, in addition to pick logs from the begining of the project, now groups the commits by tag [see example]. **TODO**
- `tag = false` && `group=false` will log from the begining of the project, without grouping by tag **TODO**

I was trying this project because I thought that this kind of output was the default. This should be implemented because ideally one would run git-changelog just before releasing a new version and the output should be a full changelog of the whole project.

For some projects I used this tool which produces this output, I think its output is awesome, unfortunately it only works for github hosted projects and it uses GH api to retrieve changelog entries.

It would be great to have an output similar to that but using your approach i.e. a full changelog generated reading entries from git commit messages with no need to use github as your git hosting.

That output is similar to what I would expect, but not grouped by a tag but by the date only or both options.

@rafinskipg At the moment, I can't group items by tag, as in angular CHANGELOG?
