The action parses conventional commit messages between two Git tags and produces an artifacthub.io/changes annotation. Pre-release tags (matching -rc) are detected automatically and result in an artifacthub.io/prerelease annotation instead.

Usage

Auto-detect tags

Without explicit inputs the action determines the two most recent non-RC tags from the Git history:

steps:
  - uses: actions/checkout@v7.0.1
    with:
      fetch-depth: 0
  - uses: volker.raschek/ah-annotations@v0.1.1

Explicit tags

Pass old-tag and new-tag to control the commit range:

steps:
  - uses: actions/checkout@v7.0.1
    with:
      fetch-depth: 0
  - uses: volker.raschek/ah-annotations@v0.1.1
    with:
      old-tag: v1.0.0
      new-tag: v2.0.0
