What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines the complex and error-prone process of releasing Rust projects. It automates version bumping, changelog generation, Git tagging, and GitHub release creation based on Conventional Emoji Commits, saving you hours of manual work and ensuring consistent releases.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Semantic Versioning: Automatically determines MAJOR, MINOR, or PATCH version bumps by analyzing commit messages following Conventional Emoji Commits.
• Changelog Generation: Generates a formatted changelog section using git-cliff and updates the CHANGELOG.md file.
• GitHub Release Integration: Creates annotated Git tags and publishes a GitHub Release with the generated changelog, including pre-release options.
• Use Case: After a series of feat and fix commits, use this skill to automatically create the next v1.2.0 release, update Cargo.toml, generate the changelog, and publish it to GitHub.
