Section titled “Releases”- v1.7.3
This release tightens changelog validation so unknown entry metadata keys are reported before they can be ignored by release workflows.
- v1.7.2
This patch release removes the Node 20 deprecation warning from the reusable release workflow when it generates GitHub App tokens on GitHub-hosted runners. Repositories that call the shared release workflow now get clean release logs without extra configuration.
- v1.7.1
This release updates locked Python dependencies to patched upstream versions and aligns generated release commits with
v-prefixed tags. It keeps release publishing, local development, and CI installs on maintained versions without changing normaltenzir-shipusage. - v1.7.0
The reusable release workflow now works out of the box in external repositories without requiring Tenzir-org-specific secrets.
- v1.6.1
This release fixes the release candidate workflow so that superseded release candidates are properly removed from changelog history after promotion to a stable release.
- v1.6.0
tenzir-ship now supports release candidates via release create --rc, letting you iterate on -rc.N builds before promoting one to the final stable release. The new flag works across both the CLI and the bundled GitHub Actions workflows.
- v1.5.0
Release commands now handle mixed version formats consistently, making changelog automation more robust. The bundled GitHub Actions workflows are updated to Node 24-compatible action versions, keeping CI aligned with GitHub's runtime transition.
- v1.4.0
The new
initcommand scaffolds changelog projects interactively or non-interactively, so you can set up a standalone or package-based project in less time. It also protects existing projects from accidental overwrites. - v1.3.1
This release improves clarity and efficacy of the releasing process in the tenzir-ship agent skill.
- v1.3.0
This release adds automatic version file updates during release creation and introduces tooling to keep release manifests in sync across package types.
- v1.2.0
This release adds support for creating releases with only introductory text and no changelog entries, and splits the reusable release workflow into minimal and advanced variants. It also fixes changelog structure validation and release progress panel display issues.
- v1.1.2
This release fixes bugs in changelog entry processing and version detection. The
authorsfield now correctly normalizes single string values, and theshowcommand no longer misidentifies entry IDs as release versions. - v1.1.1
This release fixes two bugs: the multi-project
showcommand now displays entries in consistent chronological order, and release recovery instructions show the actual branch name instead of a placeholder. - v1.1.0
This release improves the user experience when
release publishencounters failures mid-workflow. You now see a clear progress summary showing which steps completed, which step failed, and what remains pending—making recovery straightforward. - v1.0.0
This major release renames the package from
tenzir-changelogtotenzir-shipand introduces several breaking changes to streamline the CLI interface. Theshowcommand now uses intuitive positional tokens (unreleased,released,latest,all) instead of flags, and therelease notesco... - v0.19.1
This release adds initial release support with implicit version bumping and fixes row numbering in multi-project views.
- v0.19.0
This release adds configuration options to disable automatic PR and author detection, giving projects more control over changelog entry metadata.
- v0.18.2
This release adds persistent configuration support for explicit link formatting, allowing projects to set a default link rendering style in
config.yamlthat applies across all commands. - v0.18.1
This release adds explicit Markdown link conversion for GitHub references, enabling better compatibility with external documentation sites and Markdown renderers that don't automatically link @mentions and #PR references.
- v0.18.0
This release introduces a version-agnostic release workflow that simplifies publishing and CI integration, allowing commands to default to the latest release version. It also improves changelog browsing by sorting module entries chronologically rather than grouping them by project.
- v0.17.2
- v0.17.1
This release fixes a critical bug where status messages were written to stdout instead of stderr, breaking GitHub workflows and scripts that capture version output from commands like
release create. - v0.17.0
This release enhances shell scripting capabilities by making
release createoutput the version to stdout. All Rich UI elements now go to stderr, enabling clean machine-readable results for automation workflows. - v0.16.0
This release introduces aggregated module changelog summaries in release notes, allowing parent projects to automatically include a summary of changes from their modules. It also fixes a minor issue with redundant version fields in JSON output.
- v0.15.0
This release adds new options to the
release publishcommand for more flexible release automation. You can now prevent GitHub from marking a release as latest with--no-latest(useful for backport releases), and automatically commit staged changes before tagging with--commit. - v0.14.0
This release adds H1 headings to release notes output, making documents more structured and easier to navigate.
- v0.13.1
This release streamlines module mode by removing the multi-project feature in favor of the dedicated
modulesconfiguration. It removes the--include-modulesflag (modules are now always included when configured) and enhances module mode to show released entries with version numbers. The relea... - v0.13.0

This release adds support for nested changelog projects through modules, improves export formats with structured URL fields in JSON, and enhances the CLI with better export options and configuration flexibility for components.

- v0.11.0
This release adds the
--co-authoroption for crediting additional authors (useful for AI-assisted development) and improves entry parsing to accept the pluralcomponentskey in frontmatter. - v0.10.0
This release adds support for reading changelog entry descriptions from files or stdin, making it easier to integrate with automated workflows and pipelines.
- v0.9.1
- v0.9.0
- v0.8.1
