Features
Centralized Release Notes: Keep all your release notes in one easily accessible location.
Automatic Creation of Release Note: Automatically checks for the existence of a release note based on the branch name when a new branch is created. If no release note exists, you'll be presented with options to create one. The name of the release note will be extracted directly from the branch name.
Uncommitted Changes Indication Based on Rocket Color and Badge: Instantly spot uncommitted release note files based on the rocket color. Green indicates that the release note has been added to this branch but not yet committed. Yellow indicates that an already committed release note has been modified, while gray means that it has already been committed. The badge displays the total count of uncommitted release notes changes within the branch.
CRUD Operations: Perform actions like creating, opening, editing, and deleting release notes directly from the tree view. The name of the release note is also validated during the creation process.
