release-notes

A .NET tool that writes release notes for a GitHub repository from the issues and pull requests labelled with the
version being released (v1.2.3 by default), grouped into sections by their other labels.
Install
dotnet tool install --global release-notes
On Linux (x64, arm64), Windows (x64, arm64) and macOS (arm64) this installs a native-AOT executable from the
release-notes.<rid> package; everywhere else it falls back to the framework-dependent release-notes.any. Install the
release-notes package itself, not those.
Quick start
$ release-notes generate elastic apm-agent-dotnet --version 1.11.0 --uncategorized-header "Other changes"

Every command takes the repository owner and name, then --version:
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
generate |
prints the release notes, and writes them to --output too when given |
create-release |
creates or updates the GitHub release for the tag, with the --body files as its notes, and adds the version labels for the next release |
apply-labels |
adds the version labels for the next major, minor and patch release, and backport labels with --backport-label-format |
find-previous |
prints the release before --version |
current-version |
prints the current and next version for a --query (M.N, M.x, or main/master) |
--token authenticates with GitHub (anonymous otherwise, which a long issue list can exhaust). --label <label>=<heading> maps a label to a section, and defaults to bug, enhancement and documentation. --format is
markdown or asciidoc; --release-tag-format and --release-label-format set how tags and version labels are
spelled, with VERSION standing for the version.
It also runs as a GitHub Action (uses: nullean/release-notes@main) and as a container
(ghcr.io/nullean/release-notes), both without a .NET SDK.
