+          the command line. The maven-changelog-plugin uses Maven SCM under the

+          that the <code>&lt;scm&gt;</code> element in your
+          <code>pom.xml</code> file is correct. Try this on the command line:
+<source>
+mvn scm:changelog
+</source>

+          default settings, but you can change these by specifying parameters
+          on the command line. Read more about this in
+          <a href="http://maven.apache.org/scm/plugins/examples/scm-advance-features.html">the scm-plugin documentation</a>.
