A command line tool that happily completes the tasks which most developers find tedious.

## Example: Automating GitHub Actions Release

Got some conventional commits?

```

feat: A spicy feature

fix: Some sauce

```

And some changesets?

```

#### Big deal

You probably want to read this before upgrading 💜

```

Do you want to release this by hand? Knope! Here's a GitHub Actions workflow:

```yaml

name: Drop a new version

on: workflow_dispatch

jobs:

  create-release:

    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    steps:

      - uses: actions/checkout@v3

        with:

          fetch-depth: 0

          token: ${{ secrets.PAT }}

      - uses: knope-dev/action@v1 # Install Knope

        with:

          version: 0.21.3

      - run: knope release

        env:

          GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.PAT }}

```

You get a GitHub release and a changelog, picking the [semantic version] based on the combination of [conventional commits] and [changesets].
