is it possible to generate versioned changelog?

is it possible to generate a changelog per release, beside the full one, that only holds the changes from the previous release.

This is what it does. Could you elaborate on how you're using it? You may have something misconfigured. Check that you have all the tags present in the repository

Hi! i've been using it for a while and we alway generated the CHANGELOG.md file that contains all the changes in the different versions, but now, for one use case i would like to generate beside the general CHANGELOG.md a dedicated changelog file per version.... so something like

- CHANGELOG.md
- changelogs/
    - changelog-x.y.z.md
    - changelog-x.y.z.md
    - changelog-x.y.z.md

where changelog-x.y.z.md contains only the changes for the specific version

Ah, right! Apologies, I misunderstood the first time.

There isn't currently an option to do this. You could script it though - something like:

• Do a dry run and parse the output to figure out which version you're about to make
• Generate the changelog for just one version, named from the dry run output
• Generate the main changelog

I'm not sure if infile also changes the output file - if it does, it'll be very easy. If it doesn't, then you'll have to muck about moving around changelog.md but still doable
