release-watch

What problem does it solve?

Keeping track of new releases across multiple GitHub repositories is time‑consuming and error‑prone; teams often miss important updates or security patches because they have to manually check each repo and read lengthy changelogs.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Add / remove / list monitored repositories with optional keyword tags.
• Automatic version checking using the GitHub CLI to compare the stored last version with the latest release tag.
• CHANGELOG extraction and parsing to retrieve only the new sections since the previous version.
• Keyword highlighting to surface changes relevant to specific interests.
• Categorized summary output (Added, Fixed, Changed, Security) with statistics.
• State persistence in a JSON file to remember the last checked version per repository.
• Use case: A dev‑ops team can continuously monitor dependencies and receive concise release notes, ensuring timely updates and security reviews.
