name	sampo-changeset
description	Create or update changesets to describe public API changes, and trigger changelog generation and release planning.

Sampo is a tool to automate changelogs, versioning, and publishing. It uses changesets (markdown files describing changes explicitly) to bump versions (in SemVer format), generate changelogs (human-readable files listing changes), and publish packages (to their respective registries).

See CONTRIBUTING.md for changeset redaction guidelines.

Creating New Changesets

To create a changeset non-interactively:

sampo add -p <package> -b <bump> -m "<description>"

Where <bump> is major, minor, or patch. Use -p multiple times to target several packages. Prefix with the ecosystem to disambiguate: -p cargo/my-crate. When changesets.tags is configured, use -t <tag> to categorize the changeset.

Updating Existing Changesets

Pending changesets are stored in the .sampo/changesets directory. You can edit these markdown files directly, as long as you follow the guidelines above and Sampo format (read .sampo/changeset.md.example for reference).
