@commits-with-character/conventional-changelog-preset

An adapter you can use with tools such as release-it's Conventional Changelog plugin to provide the recommended bump, and update the changelog file.

It will convert Commits with Character style commit messages to a changelog. The Commits With Character prefixes are parsed into the following changelog categories:

• ~ -> Patches.
• ^ -> Minor changes.
• ! -> Major changes.
