Commit filtering with --include-path yields no results in monorepo setup

[iCrawl]

Describe the bug
Running the command git cliff --prepend packages/discord.js/CHANGELOG.md -u --include-path 'packages/discord.js/*' gives me absolutely nothing.

If I remove the include-path it does, but then obviously commits that went into different packages are being thrown into that changelog too.

I do indeed run this command in each package git cliff --prepend ./CHANGELOG.md -l -c ../../cliff.toml -r ../../ --include-path './*' which should be fine, but I also tried the one mentioned above, which also does not work.

If a repo is needed:
https://github.com/discordjs/discord.js

Running:
git cliff --unreleased --prepend packages/discord.js/CHANGELOG.md --include-path 'packages/discord.js/*'

OR:
cd packages/discord.js
git cliff --unreleased --prepend ./CHANGELOG.md -c ../../cliff.toml -r ../../ --include-path './*'

Will reproduce it, otherwise similar steps will most likely work too on any repo.

 # [13.5.1](https://github.com/discordjs/discord.js/compare/13.5.0...13.5.1) - (2022-01-07)
 
 ## Bug Fixes

However, with the second command, I get no output as well:

cd $(mktemp -d)
git clone https://github.com/discordjs/discord.js && cd discord.js/packages/discord.js
git cliff --unreleased --prepend ./CHANGELOG.md -c ../../cliff.toml -r ../../ --include-path './*'
git diff # nothing

I realized that this is due to --include-path and --exclude-path arguments uses absolute path to filter commits. So you should be giving the full path instead:

cd discord.js/packages/discord.js
git cliff --unreleased --prepend ./CHANGELOG.md -c ../../cliff.toml -r ../../ --include-path 'packages/discord.js/*'

I see that this is not ideal but I don't think I'll be taking any actions since git cliff is meant to be run in the root of the repository anyways. Also, using the current directory directive (./) is not needed in that sense.

[iCrawl]

Oh snap!

If this works without any issues:

cd discord.js/packages/discord.js
git cliff --unreleased --prepend ./CHANGELOG.md -c ../../cliff.toml -r ../../ --include-path 'packages/discord.js/*'

That means my problem is solved then, I don't mind absolute pathing it, I thought it was somehow resolving it to the relative path, that's interesting.

Thanks for the answer!
