Fetching tags from GitHub Actions

[LittleCornerDev]

Hi!

Just wondering if there is a recommended workaround for getting this to run correctly when the npm script that calls auto-changelog is called from GitHub Actions?

Right now, it only finds the latest tag from GitHub actions but finds multiple tags when run locally.

Check the https://github.com/actions/checkout readme and look for "fetch-tags"

@ljharb Awesome! Thank you so much for pointing me in the right direction 🤗.

I updated my GHA checkout step to have fetch-depth: 0 as documented and have verified that the generated changelog now includes all tags.

Fetch all history from all tags and branches

- uses: actions/checkout@v4

    fetch-depth: 0
