And, because there seems to be a small preference for it (at least due to possible conflicts), "don't include the ChangeLog in your patch when sending the patch to a mailing list" seems to be a good second part of the policy. So, to expand on Matt's wording: - When submitting via a mailing list include your ChangeLog entry in the contents of your email rather than in the diff. - When contributing in other ways (such as through a Git commit), include the ChangeLog entry in the primary diff itself. Can someone put something to that effect on the website? > In the past I have had a script to generate this for me. > It's unclear to me what do you mean, "generate this"?
