changelog-generator

package.json supports shortcut syntax for the repository field (https://docs.npmjs.com/files/package.json#repository)

orgname/reponame is very common

Currently the header file included at the top of the CHANGELOG.md file is required, this should be optional as there are plenty of use cases for not including a header. You could fake this by just creating an empty file, but we would still include some blank lines cause we assume one exists.

See "Optimizing storage" issue:

Add test files for the following cases

• if in a git repository
• output if not in a git repository
• on a repo with just 1 commit and no tags
• on a repo with just 1 commit and 1 tag
• on a repo with 1 commit and multiple tags pointing to same commit
• on a repo with 1 tag and multiple commits
• on a repo with multiple tags and multiple commits

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

Sometimes users may link commits to the relevant issues in the footer of the commit message.

Description of the new feature/enhancement

Parse the footer of a commit message to see if it includes an issue and add it to the changelog.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

In run-action.ts, process.env["HOME"] should be replaced with os.homedir(), since it covers more of the edge cases for you.

Currently issues do not include the assignee name + URL to their profile, which would be nice.
