Perhaps this is a another argument for versions on server/api code. One file to 
find changes is convenient. I think this makes sense for a version ChangeLog, 
which will change *much less* frequently than SCM revisions/commits, because 
versions grow slower than commits. Then you'll have general overview changes in 
the ChangeLog, which follows api/server versions and this we reside alongside 
frequent commit comments, which go where they belong in the SCM system. Seems 
like best of both worlds to me, unless how I phrased it made no sense...  
(possible :-D )

Yes.

Rom dropped the history from CVS days; the git repository starts at around SVN 
r8000.
