Just ditch the Changelogs and be done with it.  The only objection I
know is that changelogs act as a NEWS file.  Well, it is not a good
enough reason in my humble opionion.  Find another way to present NEWS
if it is deemed necessary.

Git usually is faster - except the initial clone.  Basically, rsync
protocol scales with the project size not with change size.

And lastly, while I don't really care either way, I think at least some
of the push back is the result of unfamiliarity with git.  And my
impression is that unless a dev with enough political capital spearheads
the move, this issue will continue to come up for a long time yet.
