Only getting the last commit on "CHANGELOG.md"

[felipe-frade]

My first Issue open in any github project.

When runned (auto-changelog) localy its beatfull, but when the github runs in the workflow, doesnt.

The action is made on a merge.
I use npm.
It run: auto-changelog -p --template changelog-template.hbs --commit-limit false && git add CHANGELOG.md.

But always get only the last commit.
Anyone knows why ?

Hi @felipe-frade, I got a similar problem today. Just try adding fetch-depth: 0 to the Checkout step:

jobs:
  release:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Checkout
        uses: actions/checkout@v3
        with:
          # default depth is 1, which is not enough for changelog generation
          fetch-depth: 0

HTH :)
