git-release-management

What problem does it solve?

This Skill solves the challenge of inconsistent commit messages and unreliable release tagging by promoting a standardized, automatable Git workflow based on Conventional Commits.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Conventional Commits enforcement: ensures commit messages follow the conventional format (type(scope): description).
• Release tagging: creates well-structured, semantic version tags (vX.Y.Z) aligned with commits and changelogs.
• Changelog generation: compiles release notes from commit messages for easy distribution.
• Use Case: Team shipping a feature with multiple commits; the skill ensures messages are standardized and a release tag is created with a clear changelog.

Quick Start

Start by adopting Conventional Commits for all changes. Commit example: git commit -m "feat(ui): add dark mode support" Create a release tag: git tag -a v1.0.0 -m "v1.0.0 - initial release"
