Highlighting new contributors would indeed be very useful. GitHub already does this on the UI level so maybe there's a GraphQL or API way to query this property directly. Do you remember how the previous solution handled this problem?
Otherwise, the hard part is arriving at a complete set of all previous contributors to compare to. Just parsing the full history seems very expensive.
A performant but a bit annoying solution might be something like
Add a --previous-contributors FILE option. It expects a simple CSV file (or similar) with ideally the databaseId of users. Login would work as well (and should be included), but might break down if users rename themselves.
Add a --append-new-contributors FILE option which appends contributors which aren't already in the file.
The release notes generator we used previously generated credit for new contributors:
