@jrafanie @Fryguy Building on LJ's #26 ... let me know what you think

You can try it yourself by running rake prepare_for_release walk through the prompts and see the commit created. It won't actually release a new version.

rake release with the input should release a new version, so use caution.

Done:

• If the version file is modified since the last release tag it will use that version, don't prompt user.
• Always prepend to the changelog then allow time for editing.
• You can modify changes before confirming and committing.

TODO:

• Add missing release notes to the changelog? (create history)
• Create shortcut rake tasks for people who want all of the defaults and don't want to be prompted for anything

Not sure if this should be merged here, I think it is a perfect candidate for a git submodule

Closing as stale, we can re-open if this becomes active again.
