App Store Changelog

Overview

Generate a comprehensive, user-facing changelog from git history since the last tag, then translate commits into clear App Store release notes.

Workflow

1) Collect changes

Run scripts/collect_release_changes.sh from the repo root to gather commits and touched files.
If needed, pass a specific tag or ref: scripts/collect_release_changes.sh v1.2.3 HEAD.
If no tags exist, the script falls back to full history.

2) Triage for user impact

Scan commits and files to identify user-visible changes.
Group changes by theme (New, Improved, Fixed) and deduplicate overlaps.
Drop internal-only work (build scripts, refactors, dependency bumps, CI).

3) Draft App Store notes

Write short, benefit-focused bullets for each user-facing change.
Use clear verbs and plain language; avoid internal jargon.
Prefer 5 to 10 bullets unless the user requests a different length.

4) Validate

Ensure every bullet maps back to a real change in the range.
Check for duplicates and overly technical wording.
Ask for clarification if any change is ambiguous or possibly internal-only.

Output Format

Title (optional): "What’s New" or product name + version.
Bullet list only; one sentence per bullet.
Stick to storefront limits if the user provides one.
