Hi Product Hunt Community, I’m Ruben, the founder. I’m excited about our launch on Product Hunt today and ready to share this free tool with you! Creating changelogs is a necessary task for keeping my users informed about the latest updates and improvements. However, I'm not a big fan of spending time on marketing tasks. So, I had an idea: what if my git commits could automatically generate changelogs? It turns out, this works incredibly well! This not only saves me time but also ensures my users always have access to the latest information in an organized and professional format. This is a free tool that I made as a fun side project, but I think the results are amazing. Try it out and let me know what you think!
great product as always. Congrats, Ruben!
As a product manager, I can really feel how this affects customers' trust in us. It also provides them with a stable and instantaneous understanding of our product.
Huge congratulations on the launch! Wishing you all the success in the world. What feedback have you received so far?
Maker
Thanks Joseph. Not a crazy lot, you can view all feedback received here:
This is something that every SaaS founder should invest in! ProductLift is amazing. We have been using it for Seodity for more than a year, and our users love it. To satisfy your customers more, you should definitely use ProductLift. And now.... with Git2Log, we will save a lot of time informing Seodity's users about updates. Ruben, this is a game-changer! Thank you!

Thanks Marcin. Glad I can help speed up your update process :)
Automating changelog creation from git commits is clever. It looks like a great time-saver for developers. Does Git2Log have any features to customize or edit the generated changelog before finalizing? Congratulations on launching Git2Log, Ruben!
Maker
Thanks! It is also interesting to see it works quite well. Good point, not that many yet apart from selecting the framework. What kind of customization would you like to see?
basic formatting features would be nice to have (italics, bold, underline, etc)
Maker
Good idea, I have added it to the Git2Log vote list here: You can vote on the item to automatically keep up to date :)
As a designer, I always keep a changelog for documentation purposes so my dev team and product team are aware of each design updates. This seem to be super useful for developers! Good luck!
Maker
Thanks! I agree it doesn't work well for non-commits, like designs.
This is beautifully simple and easy to use. Love it 👍 could definitely use something like this for a more native changelog section to our landing page.

Great to hear, Wilson! Let me know how it goes :)

Great to hear Kritin, glad you like it. Let me know if you have any feedback :)
I once thought about doing this. Glad that you guys did. Looks fun! Congrats on the launch! 🎉

Thanks Saif!
Congrats on the launch! I'm curious about how customizable the changelog format is and if it supports different styling options to match a project's branding.
Maker
Thanks, Roman! The idea is that the output follows the framework you already use (e.g., Tailwind). However, if you want more customization, you can import the changelog items as a CSV into a tool like ProductLift (). This allows for extensive customization, including branding colors and additional (S)CSS changes.
Git2Log is a lifesaver for developers! Automating the changelog generation from Git commits saves so much time and effort. This tool is a must-have for any development team. Great job!

Maker
