New Features

Support adding descriptions to releases (#192)

This lets you provide additional context above the list of structured changes.
Show list of pull requests included in the next release on the repository page (#192)

This makes it easier to see any pull requests that might be missing release notes
Link to pull requests on repository page (#192)

This makes it easier to edit release notes.
Show past releases on the repository page (#192)

We show the most recent release for each package by default. You can then choose a package to filter by and see all releases for that package. Since these are pulled from GitHub, they include releases even before you started using Rolling Versions (provided you created GitHub releases for them)

Add support for optional sections in custom tag formats (#189)

You can now mark a section of the custom tag format as optional. It will then only be included if there is a non-zero version in that section. e.g. the following:
```
tag_format = "v{{MAJOR}}.{{MINOR}}{{?.{{PATCH}}}}"
```
Produces a tag of v1.2.3 for version 1.2.3, but produces a simplified tag of v1.2 for 1.2.0.
Support custom change types and custom versioning schemas (#189)

You can see an example using all these features in test-circleci-hotfix-releases
Support overriding the versioning mode for different branches separately (#189)

For example, to have a different versioning mode between hotfix branches and the main branch, you could do:
```
[[versioning_mode]]
  branch = "main"
  mode = "ALWAYS_INCREASING"

[[versioning_mode]]
  branch = "hotfix/*"
  mode = "BY_BRANCH"
```
Report validation errors in package manifest config more clearly (#189)
Display custom tag formats in preview logs when specified in config (#189)
Pass $CURRENT_VERSION, $CURRENT_TAG and $NEW_TAG to custom scripts (#189)
