release-changelog-builder-action: [BUG] Unable to retrieve previous tag
Hi, I got the below error:
I haven’t look at the code for this action yet, but it might be due to my versioning following [feature].[patch] instead of [major].[minor].[patch]

Hello @mikepenz , We are getting this error when using this action for the first time, but when we re-run the action it works fine.
Do you know why it could be failing on the first execution?
Thanks in advance
Thank you. Will use this repo for doing more tests. really appreciate your time and help
@ccremer I believe the best approach for now would be to add the documentation / comment and highlight it to users. having a v0.0.1 tag (not sure if v0.0.0 would be valid) should be sufficient for 99% of all cases. And as you suggest also add the warning in the log
