For an app to be useful you need to have a case where you want the data from the commit history to be useful in the context of a doc, where you retain technical descriptions written by devs. Just copying the commit descriptions into a doc, even in a nicer format, feels like theatre to me. You aren't gaining anything. Non-technical users won't benefit from it and everyone else can learn 'git log'.
There is an arguement that using this would push a dev team to improve their commits, but in my experience if the team lack enough discipline to write them well a time saving tool isn't enough to push them to get better. They're probably not writing a useful changelog yet, so this doesn't save any time at all.
I really hope I'm missing something.
