Outputs a changelog diff since the last full release. I'm a fan of standard-version, but at the time of writing it doesn't support including prerelease commits when a full release is made. This addresses that limitation.

Inputs

name	description	required	default
preamble	Message positioned before the list of commits. Prefixed with '## ' (header markdown).	no	What's changed?
is-conventional	If false, it just returns a simple list of commits messages. If true, it parses conventional commits and organizes them into sections (like any conventional changelog library). By default, only feat, fix, and breaking changes are included. Will use the .versionrc file if present in the root directory.	no	true
output-flavor	Options: github-release, markdown, slack github-release: GitHub Releases support autolinked references + formatting. Source: https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/writing-on-github/working-with-advanced-formatting/autolinked-references-and-urls markdown: Basic GitHub markdown without autolinked references. This option isn't ready yet so it currenlty uses github-release as a fallback. slack: Slack uses its own special markup language called mrkdwn. Source: https://api.slack.com/reference/surfaces/formatting	no	github-release
branch-comparison-strategy	Options: tag, workflow Only applies when the workflow trigger ref starts with `refs/heads/` tag: searches for the last non-prerelease tag, and uses that to compare against HEAD workflow: searches for the last successful workflow run for the current branch + current workflow, and uses that to compare against HEAD	no	tag
aggregate-prereleases	Whether or not to combine all prerelease commits since the last full release.	no	true
token	Used to access releases and workflows.	no	${{ github.token }}

Outputs
