As I am not really working with tags, I rebuild the changelog for every new package release from scratch. The version I set is major-minor-YYYYMMDDHHMMSS e.g. 0.2-20211228124024

Now as I see, the git log messages are added to the changelog in time order, so at the and, the oldest message is on the top.

If I understand right, this could be avoided by setting tags for each new version and then only update the changelog. But even inside the updates, I'd say, that the reverse updated order would be more useful?

To get the behaviour intended (at least for me) I have commented out
commits.reverse() in the dch.py script. Would it make sense to have this at least optional with a switch?

Cheers
 Steve
