Re: [linuxtools-dev] Getting Rid of Changelogs

So my suggestion is we get rid of Changelogs, follow the format
outlined on the wiki [2] and referenced by Andrew's message [1], and
perhaps add a requirement to have a bullet for each modified file.
I'd be fine with this since many of our projects don't actually use
ChangeLog files anyway. My only concern is that we lose the ability to
dog-food our ChangeLog plugins. I'm interested in the thoughts of
others, both current ChangeLog authors and others.
Thanks for bringing this up, Sami,
Andrew

I would be in favour of this but would like to have the ChangeLog for
git enhanced to be able to create the ChangeLog data during the commit,
skipping the user name and date line.
The idea would be you could fill in the regular info as desired, hit
CTRL+ALT+P or whatever, and get the changed files plus methods added as
bullets (dashes in front).
The logic is certainly useful for documenting changes to the function or
method level as well as documenting additions and deletions without
having to get the diff info.
