 ## Customization 🖍️
 
+### Note
+
+⚠️ When running this action for non tags trigger the `toTag` will be automatically resolved using the latest tag as retrieved by the git API.
+
+⚠️ The first release tag is a special case since there is no previous release the action can reference to. For this case, there are 2 options:
+1. When checking out the source via `git` (E.g.: `actions/checkout`), the action will use the first commit.
+2. Create a initial tag on the commit you want to begin a changelog from (for example `v0.0.1`).
+
+💡 By default not specifying `fromTag` or `toTag` will resolve `toTag` from either the `ref` or alternatively fallback to the latest tag from the git API. `fromTag` is resolved by sorting tags using [semver](https://semver.org/). Check the [configuration](#configuration-specification) for alternatives.
