About this slightly hybrid approach: - the ChangeLog file is retained, some script just appends from VCS log to it * where is the ChangeLog file stored? * is the VCS log appended to the ChangeLog every time it is generated, or is it "committed" to the file? - in case of a committed update to the ChangeLog file (commit hook? repoman?), people would have the ability to edit the ChangeLog -- Fabian Groffen Gentoo on a different level
