Context

The generated changelog in the GitHub Release is build to allow for flexible configuration (similar to GitHubs generating release notes).

However, the configuration is currently static and not read from .github/releases.y[a]ml.

Proposal

• Retrieve the contents of the configuration file (.github/releases.y[a]ml) using the REST API
• Apply configuration during release notes generation.

Context

Any Conventional Commit not matched with the current configuration is not shown.

Proposal

Group all remaining commits into a Other Changes subsection in the release notes

I'm having a couple of issues:

• I have a local .zip file I want to attach as a release asset. For some reason when release-me uploads it, it doubles in size and becomes unopenable. It's getting corrupted somehow. This happens if it's added as an artifact or a local file.

• This doesn't seem to be compatible with version 4 of upload-artifact ( 'actions/upload-artifact@v4' ). If you try to use this task, the artifact isn't found by release-me. Perhaps support could be added?

Context

SemVer defines a project to remain in "Initial Version" during initial development. During this phase, the API is unstable and therefore breaking changes are not resulting in updating the MAJOR version.

Proposal

Implement support for Initial Version

Context

Currently automatic versioning is based on Conventional Commits and SemVer 2.0.
However, we would like to offer CalVer as an additional strategy.

Proposal

• Introduce a configuration option to select version strategy
• Allow extended configuration of CalVer (formatting (e.g. YYYY.MM.MICRO) and mapping between conventional commit types and increments (e.g. breaking changes & feat > CALENDAR, fix > MICRO, others > MODIFIER))

Context

When merging a github pull request, the default commit message contains the pull request number with round brackets in the end. And it can't be found during retrieving conventional commits.
Here is an example:

feat(login): add support google oauth (#12)

Proposal

Fix conventional commit matching implementation to support commit with round brackets in description.
