| > [**git-cliff**](https://github.com/orhun/git-cliff) is a command-line tool (written in [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/)) that provides a highly customizable way to generate changelogs from git history. | ||
| > | ||
| > It supports using [custom regular expressions](/docs/configuration/git#commit_parsers) to alter changelogs which are mostly based on [conventional commits](/docs/configuration/git#conventional_commits). With a single [configuration file](/docs/configuration), a wide variety of formats can be applied for a changelog, thanks to the Jinja2/Django-inspired [template engine](/docs/category/templating). | ||
| > | ||
| > More information and examples can be found in the [GitHub repository](https://github.com/orhun/git-cliff). | ||
| ## What's new? ⛰️ | ||
|
|
||
| The full changelog can be found [here](https://github.com/orhun/git-cliff/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md). | ||
|
|
||
| ### 🚀 GitHub Integration | ||
|
|
||
| This highly requested feature is now experimentally available with the `2.0.0` version of `git-cliff`! | ||
|
|
||
| For repositories hosted on GitHub, you can now use the following variables in your changelog: | ||
|
|
||
| - GitHub usernames (`${{ commit.github.username }}` or `${{ contributor.username }}`) | ||
| - Contributors list (`${{ github.contributors }}`) | ||
| - Pull requests (`${{ commit.github.pr_number }}` or `${{ contributor.pr_number }}`) | ||
|
|
||
| To quickly set things up for your project, you can use the built-in GitHub template: | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| # creates cliff.toml | ||
| $ git cliff --init github | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| And simply run `git cliff` to generate a changelog like the following: | ||
|
|
||
| ```md | ||
| ## What's Changed | ||
|
|
||
| - feat(commit): add merge_commit flag to the context by @orhun in #389 | ||
| - test(fixture): add test fixture for bumping version by @orhun in #360 | ||
|
|
||
| ## New Contributors | ||
|
|
||
| - @someone made their first contribution in #360 | ||
| - @cliffjumper made their first contribution in #389 | ||

|
||
| ### 📋 Built-in Templates | ||
|
|
||
| As briefly mentioned, the example templates are now embedded into the binary which means you can quickly initialize `git-cliff` or generate a changelog using one of them. | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| # creates cliff.toml with keepachangelog template | ||
| $ git cliff --init keepachangelog | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| # generates a changelog in keepachangelog format | ||
| $ git cliff --config keepachangelog | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| Here is the full list of supported templates as of now: | ||
|
|
||
| - [`keepachangelog.toml`](https://github.com/orhun/git-cliff/tree/main/examples/keepachangelog.toml): changelog in [Keep a Changelog format](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/). | ||
| - [`github.toml`](https://github.com/orhun/git-cliff/tree/main/examples/github.toml): changelog in the [GitHub's format](https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/releasing-projects-on-github/automatically-generated-release-notes). | ||
| - [`github-keepachangelog.toml`](https://github.com/orhun/git-cliff/tree/main/examples/github-keepachangelog.toml): combination of the previous two formats. | ||
| - [`detailed.toml`](https://github.com/orhun/git-cliff/tree/main/examples/detailed.toml): changelog that contains links to the commits. | ||
| - [`minimal.toml`](https://github.com/orhun/git-cliff/tree/main/examples/minimal.toml): minimal changelog. | ||
| - [`scoped.toml`](https://github.com/orhun/git-cliff/tree/main/examples/scoped.toml): changelog with commits are grouped by their scopes. | ||
| - [`scopesorted.toml`](https://github.com/orhun/git-cliff/tree/main/examples/scopesorted.toml): changelog with commits grouped by their scopes and sorted by group. | ||
| - [`cocogitto.toml`](https://github.com/orhun/git-cliff/tree/main/examples/cocogitto.toml): changelog similar to [cocogitto's format](https://github.com/cocogitto/cocogitto/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md). | ||
| - [`unconventional.toml`](https://github.com/orhun/git-cliff/tree/main/examples/unconventional.toml): changelog for unconventional commits. | ||
|
|
||

|
|
||
| ### 📄 Footer Template | ||
|
|
||
| Now you can use a template in `[changelog.footer]` as well! | ||
|
|
||
| Before: | ||
|
|
||
| ```toml | ||
| # changelog footer | ||
| footer = """ | ||
| <!-- generated by git-cliff --> | ||
| """ | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| After: | ||
|
|
||
| ```toml | ||
| # template for the changelog footer | ||
| footer = """ | ||
| <!-- generated by git-cliff at {{ now() | date(format="%Y-%m-%d") }} --> | ||
| """ | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| For example, [`keepachangelog.toml`](https://github.com/orhun/git-cliff/tree/main/examples/keepachangelog.toml) uses this for adding links to the end of the changelog. | ||
|
|
||
| ```toml | ||
| # template for the changelog footer | ||
| footer = """ | ||
| {% for release in releases -%} | ||
| {% if release.version -%} | ||
| {% if release.previous.version -%} | ||
| [{{ release.version | trim_start_matches(pat="v") }}]: \ | ||
| https://github.com/{{ remote.github.owner }}/{{ remote.github.repo }}\ | ||
| /compare/{{ release.previous.version }}..{{ release.version }} | ||
| {% endif -%} | ||
| {% else -%} | ||
| [unreleased]: https://github.com/{{ remote.github.owner }}/{{ remote.github.repo }}\ | ||
| /compare/{{ release.previous.version }}..HEAD | ||
| {% endif -%} | ||
| {% endfor %} | ||
| <!-- generated by git-cliff --> | ||
| """ | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| Results in: | ||
|
|
||
| ```md | ||
| [unreleased]: https://github.com/orhun/git-cliff/compare/v1.4.0..HEAD | ||
| [1.4.0]: https://github.com/orhun/git-cliff/compare/v1.3.1..v1.4.0 | ||
| [1.3.1]: https://github.com/orhun/git-cliff/compare/v1.3.1-rc.0..v1.3.1 | ||
| [1.3.1-rc.0]: https://github.com/orhun/git-cliff/compare/v1.3.0..v1.3.1-rc.0 | ||
| ``` | ||
|

| ### 🧶 Improve Skipping | ||
|
|
||
| Do you want to skip erroneous commits in the changelog? We now support two comfortable ways of doing that. | ||
|
|
||
| #### 1. `.cliffignore` | ||
|
|
||
| You can now add a `.cliffignore` file at the root of your repository for listing the commits that will be skipped: | ||
|
|
||
| ```bash | ||
| # skip commits by their SHA1 | ||
|
|
||
| 4f88dda8c746173ea59f920b7579b7f6c74bd6c8 | ||
| 10c3194381f2cc4f93eb97404369568882ed8677 | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| #### 2. `--skip-commit` | ||
|
|
||
| You can skip commits by using this argument as follows: | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| $ git cliff --skip-commit 10c3194381f2cc4f93eb97404369568882ed8677 \ | ||
| --skip-commit 4f88dda8c746173ea59f920b7579b7f6c74bd6c8 | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| --- | ||
|
|
||
| ### 🖨️ Print Bumped Version | ||
|
|
||
| If you want to use the `--bump` option but are only interested in the bumped version instead of the entire changelog, you can simply use the newly added `--bumped-version` flag! | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| # print the next semantic version | ||
| $ git cliff --bumped-version | ||
|
|
||
| v2.0.0 | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| --- | ||
|
|
||
| ### 🚫 Disable Command Execution | ||
|
|
||
| If you are using external commands (e.g. via `replace_command`) in your configuration, you can now entirely skip executing those commands with `--no-exec` flag. | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| $ git cliff --no-exec | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| For example, this is useful in the cases where the execution takes time. | ||
|
|
||
| --- | ||
|
|
||
| ### 🔄 Filter Merge Commits | ||
|
|
||
| The [template context](/docs/templating/context) has a new field called `merge_commit` (bool) which can be used to filter out merge commits. | ||
|
|
||
| For example, you can use `filter(attribute="merge_commit", value=false)` as follows: | ||
|
|
||
| ```jinja2 | ||
| {% for group, commits in commits | | ||
| filter(attribute="merge_commit", value=false) | | ||
| group_by(attribute="group") %} | ||
| ### {{ group | upper_first }} | ||
| {% for commit in commits %} | ||
| - {{ commit.message | upper_first }}\ | ||
| {% endfor %} | ||
| {% endfor %}\n | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| --- | ||
|
|
||
| ### 🔍 Match by commit SHA | ||
|
|
||
| It is now possible to use the SHA1 of a commit with [`commit_parsers`](/docs/configuration/git#commit_parsers). | ||
|
|
||
| For example, to skip a specific commit: | ||
|
|
||
| ```toml | ||
| commit_parsers = [ | ||
| { sha = "f6f2472bdf0bbb5f9fcaf2d72c1fa9f98f772bb2", skip = true } | ||
| ] | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| To override the group of a specific commit: | ||
|
|
||
| ```toml | ||
| commit_parsers = [ | ||
| { sha = "f6f2472bdf0bbb5f9fcaf2d72c1fa9f98f772bb2", group = "Stuff" } | ||
| ] | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| --- | ||
|
|
||
| ### 🔠 Regex Scope Values | ||
|
|
||
| It is now possible to use regex-replace for the `scope` value in [`commit_parsers`](/docs/configuration/git#commit_parsers): | ||
|
|
||
| ```toml | ||
| [git] | ||
| # regex for parsing and grouping commits | ||
| commit_parsers = [ | ||
| { message = "^\\[(.*)\\]", group = "Changes to ${1}", scope = "${1}" }, | ||
| ] | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| In this example, `[codebase]: rewrite everything in Rust` will appear in the changelog as: | ||
|
|
||
| ```md | ||
| ### Changes to codebase | ||
|
|
||
| - (codebase) Rewrite everything in Rust | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| --- | ||
|
|
||
| ### 📈 Bump Improvements | ||
|
|
||
| There was some love towards `--bump` flag to improve its behavior: | ||
|
|
||
| - Tag prefixes are now supported! | ||
| - This means that for example if you have `testing/v1.0.0-beta.1` as the current version and if you run `git cliff --bump`, you will see `testing/v1.0.0-beta.2` in your changelog. | ||
| - If no tags exist, `--bump` will yield `0.1.0` as default. | ||
| - Other behavioral fixes! | ||
|
|
||
| --- | ||
|
|
||
| ### 📚 Documentation Improvements | ||
|
|
||
| - Added [Tips And Tricks](/docs/tips-and-tricks)! | ||
|
|
||
| - Added installation instructions for Homebrew | ||
|

||
| - Added [instructions](https://github.com/orhun/git-cliff/tree/main/.github/fixtures#fixtures) for adding new test fixtures | ||
|
|
||
| --- | ||
|
|
||
