See: http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/msg_f829da2375f1ceab766a800913cc499= 8.xml I propose a simple new text: "Every commit should have an entry in ChangeLog." If we eventually autogenerate them from git logs this would happen any way (unless some kind of filtering system is in the middle) so we could already start now. I think it's better to have more than less information available to users.
