We use [semantic-release](https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release) as process to generate changelog
and to release. Write meaningful commits according to 
[Commit Message Formats](https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release#commit-message-format) is important.

```
git add ...
git commit -am "commit-type(optional topic): a meaningful message"
```

Here is an example of the release type that should be done based on a [semantic-release](https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release):
