Auto-generating ChangeLog files?

[Thomas Wood <thos gnome org>]

Hi,

Does anyone have any suggestions or objections to auto-generating
ChangeLog files from git log?

I would like to propose gnome-control-center auto-generate ChangeLog
files, since:

     1. it's high time we stopped duplicating the same information in
        the version control system and in the ChangeLog file.
     2. some people have already stopped (or forgotten) to update the
        ChangeLog file (ahem).
     3. it would hopefully make it easier to manage the multiple
        ChangeLog files we have


Regards,

Thomas
