No. Resolving conflicts implies that you need to do an actual merge, NOT a 
fast forward. Fast-forwarding means that I am shipping the SAME commit on 
all branches, so the changelog must be identical (unless I play games with 
%if in the changelog, which is not going to happen).

In addition, resolving conflicts is extra work compared to a conflict-free 
merge or ideally a fast-forward.
