Is it possible to generate single changelog for multiple git projects

Hello, it is not possible for now. It can be implemented but can you give some details about your use-case? I'm wondering when such thing can be useful.

[darkLord19]

@orhun in microservices environments or environment where one release consists of multiple separate components deployments

[orhun]

I see. The problem is git-cliff currently parses the commit history and splits the commits into groups by tags. So in the case of multiple git histories, it should join the histories and group the commits somehow, if that's what you meant by "multiple git projects".

e.g.

git cliff --repository <repo_path1> <repo_path2>

Would that be sufficient for your use-case?

@darkLord19 Are you using a monorepo for multiple service projects or multiple repositories? Your question about "projects" and "components" doesn't make it clear how you are handling these in relation to repositories.

[orhun]

@darkLord19 can you clarify @alerque's question before I proceed with the implementation?

[darkLord19]

@orhun git cliff --repository <repo_path1> <repo_path2> ye this is exactly what I mean. I have multiple repos and it should join commits

[ZhukovWang]

Hello, I try this command git cliff --repository <repo_path1> <repo_path2> -l --output changlog.md, but this only outputs changelog of repo_path1, doesn't contain repo_path2.

And I read the code, seems the type of repository is not right? code line is here. It should be Option<Vec<PathBuf>>, not Option<PathBuf>, like include_path.

I implemented this in 8b17a1f and will be available with the next release.
