Context

I am working on a project that contains multiple apps in one repo. Now, lerna generates changelogs for each app. I am using different types of conventional commits (e.g. test, docs, style, chore, ect.) Currently, by default, my changelogs contain only 3 types of commits (fix, feat and BREAKING CHANGE, regarding to SemVer). I want my changelogs to contain all types of commit messages (test, docs, ect.)
Is it possible to do it with lerna config?

Your Environment

Executable	Version
lerna --version	^3.2.1
npm --version	6.10.1
node --version	10.16.0

OS	Version
Ubuntu	19.04

Sounds to me like this is related to the issues raised in #2138 und #2248
This would be solved if lerna invokes conventional-changelog correctly.

@serhiiminin Did you check if npx conventional-changelog -p angular (the angular template used by lerna at the moment) contains your desired commit types? npx conventional-changelog -p conventionalcommit (the conventional commits template that is the current default there) should list them in any case

[evocateur]

This is what --changelog-preset is for. Lerna passes it through to conventional changelog's JS API.

@evocateur That is true, but due to the issues described in #2138 you cannot use that switch at the moment. Maybe we should just highlight this a bit better until the issue is fixed.

@thuringia I added the "help wanted" tag on #2138 almost 5 months ago. So far, not a peep.
