changelog doesn't read repo URL from package.json

[ffxsam]

I have this in package.json:

  "repository": {
    "type": "git",
    "url": "git+https://github.com/abc/xyz.git"
  },

And yet when I run changelog in the project dir, I get:

changelog The module's owner did not specify the repository url in the package.json for proj. You should let the author know.

If I type out the full URL, it works fine:

$ changelog https://github.com/abc/xyz

I think it's the git+https prefix that is causing it. Could you test with only one of them? If so then that will narrow down the problem.

I tried just https:// and got the same result.

changelog only fetches the project name (for querying npm) from the local package.json. The github url is then obtained from the data provided by the npm registry.

If you want package.json to also provide/take-priority-over-npm-registry re github url, see fork commit SHA-1: 67f8877 + SHA-1: 1fdb12a
