• github_token: Github token
• feature_commit_pattern: Feature commit pattern. Example: JIRA-. You can use same pattern as for autolinking issues.
• description_template: This is a description template use {{features}} to replace it by list of commits matched using feature_commit_pattern and {{chores}} will be replace by commit description list not matched feature_commit_pattern. Default value:

  # Features:
  {{features}}
  # Chores:
  {{chores}}
  

• description_template_filepath: If you need to use more complex template you can use MD file. Use {{feature_commits}} in the template to replace it with list of commits matched using feature_commit_pattern and {{chores_commits}} will be replace by commit description list not matched feature_commit_pattern. This will overwrite description_template. If file not exist will fallback to description_template. Sample template file can be found here.
