Change log needs to be below the --- otherwise we'll store it forever
in git. A linked tag (which will be generated when I apply)

Sorry, this is my first patch, I was not aware of that.
Thanks for the explanation.
Quick question: since next version will include 2 patches,
I guess a change log should be moved back to the cover letter, right?
It's a trade off for which there are no firm rules.
Sometimes changes are well isolated in individual patches, in which case
the best bet is to put the change logs in each patch, sometimes they are
more global things that affect the whole series in which case the change
log is best in the cover letter.
However, for a given series pick one or other style (don't mix!) as
otherwise it would get really confusing. Mostly no one really minds
where the log is as long as we can find it easily.
