But I certainly don't want to maintain one by hand - that'll just slow down the release process and is too boring and too much effort.\r\n\r\nI found https://github.com/skywinder/github-changelog-generator which looks promising. We operate pretty much exclusively through issues and pull requests, so it can pick up almost all that we do.\r\n\r\nI've generated an example using the option `--no-issues` and it's at https://gist.github.com/gravitystorm/6ecdd3ec6d5656fa03b6 . I'm not against issues showing up, but I didn't like seeing the ones that were closed wontfix\r\n\r\nWhat do people think? Is it a good idea to have a changlog, and if so, is this tool appropriate?"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/comments/84093526","html_url":"https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/1430#issuecomment-84093526","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/1430","id":84093526,"user":{"login":"pnorman","id":1190866,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1190866?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/pnorman","html_url":"https://github.com/pnorman","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pnorman/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pnorman/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pnorman/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pnorman/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pnorman/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pnorman/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pnorman/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pnorman/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pnorman/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-03-20T18:21:42Z","updated_at":"2015-03-20T18:21:42Z","body":"I was thinking of opening the same issue...\r\n\r\nI'd rather use the manually generated messages, as they're a selection of what we consider significant.
