Generate project history base on git commits/tags

Add a test case similar to cli_base/tests/test_readme_history.py into your project. Add the needed start/end comments into your README.

To make a new release, do this:

• Increase your project version number
• Run tests to update the README
• commit the changes
• Create release

It's recommended to use git hookd (via pre-commit) to update the README. For this, add in your pyproject.toml:

[tool.cli_base]
version_module_name = "<your_package>" # Must provide the `__version__` attribute

Copy&paste .pre-commit-config.yaml into your project.

Add pre-commit to your requirements and install the git hooks by:

.venv/bin/pre-commit install
.venv/bin/pre-commit autoupdate

Update pre-commit hooks

Update version in .pre-commit-config.yaml and make a release.

The Problem: The hooks are broken, if the "new" version is not tagged yet. To create a release, it's possible to use all git commands (commit, push, etc) with --no-verify to skip the hooks.

It's easier to temporarily uninstall the hooks, create the release and install the hooks again, e.g.:

.../cli-base-utilities$ .venv/bin/pre-commit uninstall
# ...bump version, commit, push, merge... create release...
.../cli-base-utilities$ .venv/bin/pre-commit install
