Hi! 👋

Firstly, thanks for your work on this project! 🙂

Today I used patch-package to patch [email protected] for the project I'm working on.

We're working in a monorepo, and would like to generate changelogs for the whole repo, excluding certain folders. I was able to achieve this using the git pathspec syntax, and a small change in git-raw-commits.

We're now able to use the following to generate the changelog excluding a specific sub-path:

conventional-changelog -p angular -i CHANGELOG.md -s --commit-path='. :!packages/*'

Not sure if this would fit in the scope of this project - but I thought I'd share in case anyone runs into a similar issue.

If this is something you are willing to merge, let me know and I can prepare a PR.

Here is the diff that solved my problem:
