About the Project

A lightweight WordPress plugin that automatically generates a changelog from Git commit history. It provides a clean, versioned timeline view in the WordPress admin area.

The plugin parses the last 500 git commits and groups them by version tags (commits starting with v1.2.3: format). It detects the currently deployed version from a VERSION file and highlights it in the timeline.

Designed as a hidden admin page accessible only via direct URL, it serves as an internal tool for developers and site administrators to track changes without leaving WordPress.

Key Features

  • Automatic Git log parsing (last 500 commits)
  • Version grouping from commit messages
  • Current version detection and highlighting
  • Hidden admin page (no menu clutter)
  • Hungarian localization
