Re: Concurrent changelogs - merge or nix?

I've been there, keeping Ruby .spec file in sync with upstream
development, and my decision was always to drop the detailed changelog
and replace it just with single entry. In the end, in the development
stream, there are many times mentioned just updates to some snapshots,
temporary workarounds etc. This applies also to the final update, I
prefer to have it in just single commit (typically done just using
`fedpkg import`) instead of merging the branch.

If anybody is interested in details, I used to maintain the changes in
branches, which are kept in the repo. The last development branch is in
my fork in Pagure which I again keep around (may be I should still keep
the development branches instead, dunno).
