Can I deactivate sectioning ? about gitchangelog HOT 6 CLOSED

Is there an official way to override templates provided by this package?

from gitchangelog.

@kminh I recall I am disabling sectioning like this:

section_regexps = [
    ('', None)
]

Also I had problems with overriding the templates earlier. #36 is open related to that. Maybe @vaab could take another look at it (it's broken now, though...)?

Yes, the defaults are the reference config file. You should really copy the whole reference file as a start if you want to change defaults. You can safely delete anything that you don't want to change. Your feedback catched my attention about this being unclear. Not sure yet how I'll tackle this (change needed, more doc needed ?). Feel free to suggest.

@vaab Maybe just point out in the docs (or FAQ) that you can disable sectioning by:

section_regexps = [
    ('', None)
]

However, without sectioning, user probably also wants to see the new/fix/chg prefixes in each commit, so the default behavior of removing those needs to be also removed by specifying:

subject_process = (strip | ucfirst | final_dot)

Ok, do you think this last commit will improve the situation ?

Yeah that commit tackles the issue well. Thanks!
