Emacs convention is to not mention the file name in the summary,
unless itʼs a one-file change, in which case you put the filename with
'* ' prepended (although some contributors prefer not to do that).
I went for 'dir/filename' in the summary, since Iʼm lazy and can copy
that from the ChangeLog commit message :-)
