Description
One of the output values is changelog and contains the following:
changelog=### [2.0](https://github.com/repo/compare/1.0...2.0) (2.0)
I have to write a custom commit message that contains the URL, but not the rest of the text. It would be nice if there's a changelog_url so that I don't have to write a regular expression against the text message provided in the changelog input value, or "construct" the URL myself.
Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
Start by locating where the GitHub Action exposes the existing changelog output and where that changelog URL is assembled. Add a separate changelog_url output containing only the comparison URL, then run the project's relevant checks or tests and verify both outputs retain their intended values.
