Hi There,

I am getting the following error when running the command with my token.

Generating changelog:

Would you know what should I do?

Thanks!

Hi!
undefined method [] - It seems, that script didn't find any tags in your repo and I didn't check that array can benil in the script.
Make sure that you push all tags to GitHub. git push --tags

Please give me more information about your running command params. (at least user-name and project-name) to debug.

@skywinder creating a tag fixed the problem. thanks!

You're welcome!
I'll fix it and add some friendly output for that case in next version.

great, thanks!
