Change Report GitHub Action

This action generates a report from the recent code changes and posts it to Slack or Discord.

Demo

Important: The report is created by taking the commit messages in your repository as input. This means that the more descriptive you are when committing changes, the better this action will work for you 😉.

Here's an example of how the generated change report might look like.

So, let's say you have a repository with the following commit history:

feat: Develop initial launch plan for SpaceX Internet satellites
chore: Setup project repository for SpaceX Internet satellite launch
refactor: Update satellite design to improve stability and reduce weight
docs: Add user manual for SpaceX Internet service
fix: Correct satellite positioning for optimal Internet coverage
test: Run system tests for satellite deployment and connectivity
build: Prepare launch vehicle for SpaceX Internet satellite deployment
feat: Implement automated satellite monitoring system for real-time status updates
refactor: Optimize satellite power consumption to prolong battery life

... etc

Then, the generated report might look like this:

🚀 SpaceX Internet Satellite Launch Updates 🛰️

In the past 7 days, we've been working hard to improve our SpaceX Internet satellite service. Here are the most important changes that we've made:

🌐 Connectivity:
- Fixed intermittent connection issues
- Addressed DNS resolution issues
- Improved data encryption and security measures
- Implemented adaptive modulation to improve signal quality
- Upgraded satellite antenna design to improve signal reception

📱 User Experience:
- Introduced SpaceX Internet app for easy access to service
- Added troubleshooting guide and FAQ section to documentation
- Improved user interface for SpaceX Internet app

💻 Technical Improvements:
- Upgraded ground station hardware to improve signal processing
- Optimized satellite orbit to minimize signal latency
- Implemented machine learning algorithms to optimize bandwidth allocation

🚀 Deployment:
- Launched additional satellites to increase coverage area and redundancy 
- Prepared for launch of new satellites with improved signal processing capabilities 
- Introduced SpaceX Internet service in international markets 

The report might look slightly differently in your case, as it depends on the commit messages.
