You're taking the 'warning' way too literally. The idea is to keep a
log (NOT in the SCM metadata) of changes made to GnuCash. When was
the last time a change was reverted because it lacked a ChangeLog
entry?
Now, don't let this mean you're welcome to stop making ChangeLog
entries. See my previous email about that. I think it's perfectly
reasonable in certain cases (in particular cases where you're not
changing real code) to /not/ enumerate the changed files in the
ChangeLog. BUT... I think you still MUST make a log entry!

Okay, if you're going to be pedantic, personally I feel you should
always run "svn diff" and audit the output using whatever method you
prefer, but you should ALWAYS audit the "svn diff" before you commit.
Better? :-P

"The [Save] the ChangeLog buffer, [copy-to-cut-buffer] to copy the
changelog entry, and then [yank-from-cut-buffer] once you get the
svn commit"
