I'm inclined to agree with Thomas. I think it would be preferable if the ChangeLog file contained a history of the changes that were relevant to that particular branch - i.e. the code that accompanied the log file. Rather than the project as a whole. I haven't looked at the text of the ChangeLog recently (thus proving your other point, I s'pose) - but if you're including 5-3-patches log entries, then in the majority of cases, surely these will just duplicate the corresponding main branch entries? (Since a lot of fixes get applied to both lines at the same time) And for the particular cases where a patch is *only* applied to the 5-3-patches line (presumably since the code has changed for the main line and the fix is no longer relevant), then listing that patch in the main-line ChangeLog file is more likely to be confusing, rather than helpful.
