Conventional Changelog Atom has released version 5.0.0, marking an update from the previous stable version 4.0.0. While both versions serve as Atom presets for generating changelogs based on conventional commit messages, several differences are worth noting for developers using this library.
Version 5.0.0, published in May 2024, reflects the latest updates and improvements. One noticeable change is the slightly smaller unpacked size (8108 bytes) and fewer files (10) compared to version 4.0.0's 8685 bytes and 11 files. This could indicate optimizations in the codebase or a streamlining of included assets. The repository field in package.json of the new version includes a "directory" property pointing to packages/conventional-changelog-atom, which was absent in the configuration of the previous version. This implies a more structured project layout within the larger conventional-changelog repository. More generally, an updated version offers the potential of incorporating new features, bug fixes, and enhanced compatibility with the latest iterations of Atom and conventional changelog standards. Developers should consider upgrading to version 5.0.0 to benefit from these potential improvements and ensure their changelog generation remains up-to date and efficient. While both versions are licensed under ISC and authored by Steve Mao, the latest version promises a refined experience and a stronger alignment with current development practices.
