Only use the commit subject in the changelog. about gitchangelog HOT 2 CLOSED

Hi, thanks for your interests in gitchangelog. A lot of people are using the body of the commit to get a little more in their changelogs. What I might suggest you is to make your own template (mako and mustache examples templates are included for you to hack, just remove the body part). You could also use the gitchangelog.rc to set body_process to lambda txt: "".

Configurability of gitchangelog allows you to make your own changelog as it suits you with little changes.

For now, the default format suits my need, and I believe it suits the needs of a majority. I may be wrong, but I don't feel your requests represents a majority.

For merging, either users of gitchangelog won't include the commit at all (with include_merge = False, or they are carefull about their body content.

Ah, thank you, that lambda is exactly what I want. May I suggest making it a bit clearer in the docs that body_process does not apply to the first line? I didn't use it because I thought it applied to the entire commit message (including the first line). Otherwise, it's perfect, thank you!
