Sure. That's obviously the right change. > Also, when you removed coreutils/ChangeLog from git, you did not also remove > coreutils/m4/ChangeLog. This is a bit confusing; are you planning on renaming > and/or merging m4/ChangeLog into the main generated top-level ChangeLog? I've been annoyed by that, too. And the other */ChangeLog files. I'm thinking of renaming each of them to */ChangeLog.2007. A nicer approach would be to move (and adjust each file name to have the appropriate dir prefix) all of the entries from these files: build-aux/ChangeLog doc/ChangeLog lib/ChangeLog m4/ChangeLog po/ChangeLog into these top-level ones: ChangeLog-2005 ChangeLog-2006 ChangeLog-2007 ChangeLog-2008 Anyone know of a good ChangeLog-merging/sorting tool? _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
