I use rsync to get the portage tree and the Changelog have not been
touched since the migration. Did I miss something here ?
Out of curiosity, I tried egencache --update-changelogs on the
gentoo-science repo. It created most Changelog, while complaining
several time and failing due to I think, utf8 characters being used.
See the attached file.
<shameless plug>
A few weeks back I was frustrated enough with the lack of Changelog
that I hacked a small tool to query the changes made on a file using
the GitHub API. You don't need to clone any git repo. It tries to
mimic the Changelog layout and colors. It's far from being perfect,
but it does the job for me. It is now available here:
https://github.com/xhub/changelog-gentoo Maybe it is also useful for
others ...
