Devlog is a powerful tool that automatically generates (b)log posts from your Git commit history, providing a natural language summary of your development progress.
It uses ollama to generate the blog posts locally so it never sends your data to third-party servers.
Devlog retrieves all the commit messages in a repository (local or remote), groups them by customizable time periods, and generates blog posts in natural language. This tool is perfect for developers who want to maintain a development log or changelog without the manual effort of writing blog posts.
- Supports both local and remote Git repositories
- Customizable time periods for grouping commits
- Natural language generation for readable blog posts
- Output formats: Markdown and HTML
