Auto-create Release.yaml?

I'm curious if anyone else has come up with a simple way to create a Release.yaml file based on git commit messages. I use grunt, and it would be great for it to simply compile the last 5 commit messages into a release file.

Maybe I'm just not familiar with how Release.yaml files are normally authored, but my workflow is a simple 'git commit' and 'git push' so it would be nice to simply work with that.

We should give it two modes - one that uses a release file, and another that just pulls the commit message for a given commit/tag. At the time I had larger release notes which were copy pasted from our deployment system (the build server tags releases, but the release notes are hand written at deployment time rather than build time).

Which release plugin are you using by the way?

That sounds reasonable, or possibly just pulling the last commit message would be nice.

I'm using grunt-raygun-deployment: https://github.com/MindscapeHQ/grunt-raygun-deployment if that's what you are asking.
