Description

I use conventional commits in my project for the change-log and play store "what's new" section https://github.com/sschueller/peertube-android/blob/develop/.releaserc.yml

Right now I copy the same data that is in appended to the changelog.md to the play store listing. However that doesn't support the markdown format and Google will most likely reject my future app updates if I have version number and commit hashes in there.

How can I produce a second change-log in a simple list format for the play store? I'd rather not make some complex bash thing to remove what I don't want if it can be done directly.

Research direction

Start with the linked .releaserc.yml and the release-notes-generator configuration it uses. Check the plugin's documented output and formatting options first; done would mean a supported way to produce a simple Play Store list separately from changelog.md.
