Thank you for opening a Pull Request! Before submitting your PR, there are a few things you can do to make sure it goes smoothly:

  • Make sure to open an issue as a bug/issue before writing your code! That way we can discuss the change, evaluate designs, and agree on the general idea
  • Ensure the tests and linter pass
  • Code coverage does not decrease (if any source code was changed)
  • Appropriate docs were updated (if necessary)

Context:

Fixes #1716 🦕

This PR is a follow-up to #1717
We can probably close it as my PR is based off it.

Changes:

  • Utilise the commitPartial attribute from BaseStrategyOptions
  • Add commitPartialPath to the manifest config and friends
  • Commit authors and PR reference links can be added to the commit entries for a release by providing a custom .release-please-commit-partial.hbs file.
    • You can find the template file here (we default to this template when no commitPartialPath is provided)

TESTING

I have done testing on this dummy repo.

Add PR author to a commit entry for the generated release notes.

I wonder if this feature be default or opt-in.

This would be very nice to have! Another related thought, maybe a list of excluded authors? For example, I wouldn't want myself listed by every single commit I do.

Sorry for the late review, but this is looking great!

One question -- is this opt-in? IMO, all the new features should not change existing behavior.

This feature is entirely opt-in.

commitPartial already existed as as optional argument prior to this PR.
It was just never used.

So now we provide a real value if commitPartialPath (newly added as part of this PR) is specified in the manifest file.

Yeah I can see this being annoying.
The exclusion list could work.

I was thinking we could also remove the @ from the author's user ID when building the notes.

Alternatively, I wonder if it is possible to supress the notifications for these Github mentions created by release-please.

What is the current state of this PR?
Would love to see this, especially in combination with the beforementioned exclude-list!

Thanks for your work!
