I prefer the direct method but omitting all entries prior to the change of
ChangeLog policy. We changed last year when we were still using SVN so the
date is a little older than others would use:
# Build ChangeLog from git log
ChangeLog:
$(AM_V_GEN) if test -f $(top_srcdir)/.git/HEAD; then \
git log --stat --no-color --since=2008-06-21 > $@; \
fi
