Frequently Asked Questions

Why follow the Keep a Changelog format?

What are the six changelog categories?

Added (new features), Changed (modifications), Deprecated (soon-to-be removed), Removed (deleted features), Fixed (bug fixes), and Security (vulnerability patches).

Can I append to an existing changelog?

Yes! This tool generates the latest release block. Simply paste it at the top of your existing CHANGELOG.md file beneath your Unreleased header.
