Non-semantic mode
Sometimes we want to publish release notes, even if we have not followed semantic convention. For this, pass a number of commits to allow including in the log. For example
const changelog = require('simple-changelog')
changelog('1.2.3', 3)
.then(console.log)
If there are semantic commits - only semantic public commits will be used. If there are fewer than 3 commits (of any type), they will be in the changelog. Otherwise the log will have only the version and the date.
Debugging
