It's especially the function names that are useful, now that file names can be easily changed. Is there a way to automate the commit message editing process in such a way that the user can easily add this info to the list of files? I.e., the guard protecting the file list should be removed and some smaller format conversions to make it changelog-like. I googled for scripts doing that, but nothing really right turned up. - Martin
