["Dennis Lundberg (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCHANGELOG-107?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=220536#action_220536 ] 

Dennis Lundberg commented on MCHANGELOG-107:
--------------------------------------------

I agree that this would be a neat feature. However I don't see how the plugin is supposed to know what "the previous release" is. The naming of tags is totally in the hands of each developer.

>                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCHANGELOG-107
>             Project: Maven 2.x Changelog Plugin
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>    Affects Versions: 2.1
>            Reporter: Grzegorz Kochanski
>
> Now mvn release:release generates changelog for last 2 days.
> The default behavior should be changelog since previous released version.
> To simulate behavior now you have to add to pom.xml:
>       <plugin>
>         <artifactId>maven-changelog-plugin</artifactId>
>         <configuration>
>           <type>tag</type>
>           <tags>
>             <tag implementation="java.lang.String">someApplication-1_6</tag>
>             <tag implementation="java.lang.String">HEAD</tag>
>           </tags>
>         </configuration>
>       </plugin>
> and change the someApplication-1_6 with someApplication-1_7 after successful release.
> And you have to repeat it for every release you perform.
