A plugin to maintain a change log of recently edited files in your Obsidian vault. Updates can be triggered manually or automatically.
- Tracks recently edited notes in a centralized changelog.
- Supports both manual and automatic updates.
- Customizable file paths, timestamps, and entry limits.
Use a dedicated change log note and embed it elsewhere if you need historical tracking.
This project was originally created by Badr Bouslikhin (2020-2024).
In January 2025, Badr transferred the repository to Mark Ayers.
On behalf of the Obsidian community, we extend our gratitude to Badr for this valuable contribution.
