You are right. But: * In ChangeLog people write for example what the applied patch is supposed to do, while in commit log they just write which patch has been applied. * ChangeLog is something that goes into distribution, so this way we should automate ChangeLog generation from CVS, which I don't know how to do this in a clean way. The other way is to update ChangeLog from cvs2cl.pl output manually before releases. I choose this way for now. > Try the script locally to see what I mean. I know what it does ;).... Ok, changed BiCon to take this approach.
