Hard work and poor pay stresses out open-source maintainers
True. I had a need for changelog output in one of my open source projects, and I just couldn't find an existing changelog tool that allowed me to do what I wanted (custom groups defined by regex, linking to contributors, and custom templating), so I wrote myself a changelog tool. I ended up using this tool at work this week.

How building something else is distracting me.
I was talking about building useful stuff for people to use, that reminds me commitlog reached about 48 stars at the time of writing this, so that's really nice but let's see if I can build a lot more tools that work well in everyone's workflow.
