FWIW, I think it's best to switch to a new format that better suits git. e.g. "git log --pretty=oneline" can be very useful, but only where people properly summarise the commit on the first line. If we used the typical ChangeLog format, it would be useless. Also, we don't need the date and author information twice. II think git commit messages generally more genuinely useful information than a ChangeLog entry - it seems to encourage people to more fully explain what they're doing. If we switch formats, 'git log --stat' is fine for Changelog - you get author, date, files changed etc. Cheers, Mark. -- Libvir-list mailing list Libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
