Automated Changelog
I spent a bit of time exploring the API of the project management tool (Yodiz.com) I use and have now set up an automated changelog. Any project management entry tagged "public_tag" will be displayed on the changelog (if completed) or the roadmap (if not completed). The changelog also parses code files looking for valid JSON {"type": "changelog"} and includes those code comments in the changelog.

Nice.
Really want an easy way to do changelogs, SaaS solutions are $50.
Plan on building it into https://versoly.com/ but the roadmap is long :)
Thanks. My biggest issue is double entry and duplicate data storage (resulting in inconsistencies). I want tagged items on the to-do list to automatically move from roadmap to changelog when completed because otherwise it's a waste of my time (IMO).
I've seen some use Trello but Trello doesn't have decent PM features (IMO). Yodiz does an automated burndown, which I've not found anywhere else.
Oh, I also looked at getmakerlog.com as a public task list and changelog but either it has to be the one and only task list of it still requires duplicate entry.
