Hello,
I think it'd be a good idea to generate ChangeLogs from the git commit
messages. I usually write the same information in both ChangeLog and
commit message, so we're needlessly duplicating information.
Works for me as long as people are not doing entire novels as their
messages (I like keeping commit messages fairly short so I can easily
get an overview of the last $X commits). I can't remember ever doing
so myself however so I don't expect that to be a problem.
Well, you could just include the information, that git shortlog would
include. Means one line only.
So a commit message should have one line as a summary and if needed,
more information in the following lines.
BTW, I would vote for including a diffstat.
Do devs actually want ChangeLogs?
I think, that git log is more flexible anyway, so I would use that,
whenever possible.
