Obsidian Vault Changelog Plugin

A plugin to maintain a change log of recently edited files in your Obsidian vault. Updates can be triggered manually or automatically.

Important: The change log note will be entirely overwritten at each update. Use a dedicated change log note and embed it in other notes if needed.

Note: This is a continuation of the original work by Badr Bouslikhin from 2020 to 2024. In January, Badr entrusted the project to Mark Ayers by transferring the code repository. On behalf of the Obsidian community, I want to express our gratitude to Badr for this valuable contribution.
