Command line utility for keeping your changelog tidy

This tool aims to:

1. make your changelog file standardized; and
2. reduce the time spent on updating the changelog file by providing a suite of basic commands.

The Changelog standard is based on the keep-a-changelog convention with few adjustments, described in this document.

It is also possible (with some additional scripting/tooling) to incorporate this utility into your Continuous Integration & Continuous Delivery routines. There are few things to consider, mentioned in this document.

• Python >= 3.7
