Looks good but needs to grab between Future Releases and the latest version.

@angela97lin @jeremyliweishih I think I fixed the hard-coding here, and I broke things up so it should be a bit easier to follow! It was pretty soupy before.

@angela97lin you mentioned this is like magic--I agree, unix utilities are beautiful magic ✨ quick breakdown of what's going on:

  • The "|" operator is the unix pipe mechanism which passes output along to subsequent commands
  • var=$(...): evaluating commands in sub-shells to save the output.
  • sed is a super handy find-replace utility. I used it on line 12 to define a regex group and extract the matching version number as evalml_version
  • Then by including "p" and "q" commands with sed on line 13, we're telling it to print everything after a match or to print everything up to a match, respectively. That lets us get all the lines between the last release header (i.e. the one about to go out) and the release header before that.
  • tail, sed '$ d' and awk 'NF' are just hacks to remove leading/trailing lines and whitespace
  • The usage of date below gets the date in the exact human-readable format we use it in our release notes.
  • The markdown part just uses a sequence of sed commands to replace specific line prefixes with their markdown counterparts, and then to convert our pr tags to use a hash for markdown.
  • Finally we put it all together in full_markdown and output the result at the end!

Very cool @dsherry ! I just tested it out locally and it works as expected!

Thanks for explaining what was happening with all of the sed and awk commands.
