orgname/reponame is very common

See "Optimizing storage" issue:

These two tools ( and maybe more? Hugo? ) do not get updated by dependabot and will need to be updated by a different tool.
https://www.updatecli.io/ seems like a good fit and should handle it fine.
Running weekly with github actions should be enough, these tools do not update all that often.

Add test files for the following cases

• if in a git repository
• output if not in a git repository
• on a repo with just 1 commit and no tags
• on a repo with just 1 commit and 1 tag
• on a repo with 1 commit and multiple tags pointing to same commit
• on a repo with 1 tag and multiple commits
• on a repo with multiple tags and multiple commits

https://github.com/actions/upload-release-asset can be used to attach files to releases, but it takes an "upload url" as parameter.

release-with-changelog should output this URL as well: https://docs.github.com/en/rest/reference/repos#upload-a-release-asset

Apparently it can be generated easily with just the release ID, which this action already has access to

Sometimes users may link commits to the relevant issues in the footer of the commit message.

Description of the new feature/enhancement

Parse the footer of a commit message to see if it includes an issue and add it to the changelog.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

In run-action.ts, process.env["HOME"] should be replaced with os.homedir(), since it covers more of the edge cases for you.

Currently issues do not include the assignee name + URL to their profile, which would be nice.
