Hi, is there a way to generate the log since a particular tag? The --between-tags option doesn't seem to allow this. I tried doing a hack where I used git to get the latest tag and then pass it to the github_changelog_generator command, but the output is different from what I expected. The --between-tags option seems to roll up all the pull requests in between into the later tag, instead of listing each tag in between. I did not expect that, but I assume that is the intended behavior?

Hi! I close #210 recently in favor of --between-tags option. But now I see, that similar option, but with tags could be useful.

So, I agree with you, it would be nice to add options --since-tag, --due-tag.

there is need to implement --due-tag to complete this issue. In a similar manner as #257

due_tag should be able to be implemented in a very similar way to since_tag.

Exactly. That's what I said in previous comment. I will handle it soon.

I just started using this, and I think its great. Thanks a lot! 🍻 And sorry for being lazy, but I want to chip in and voice my great interest for this project!

Can we (after this is closed) generate 'delta' changelogs e.g. add new changes to an old change log?
I have been developing my project and have generated meaningless PRs etc for myself etc. I'd like to be able to ignore the old stuff and just add all the new changes to my changelog.

My request mainly is: the ability to prepend new changes from a new version to the old changelog to avoid having to curate out some unnecessary stuff from changelog? (sorry to request if its already implemented)
