actions-recent-changelog

A GitHub Action for generating a "recent changes" file from a larger manually-curated changelog

Behavior

The action expects to be provided with a markdown file. It will extract the first ## subheading and all lines between it and the next ## subheading or the end of the file. These lines will be written as-is to the provided output file.

Coincidentally, this will work with the keepachangelog format. It doesn't require that your changelog be compliant with the full specification, however.

Usage
