If something is REALLY critical that needs to be fixed you can always use a |
| 11 |
hack like adding a line of whitespace or something and re-committing (which |
| 12 |
will work with any scm), but I'd only reserve that for when a changelog |
| 13 |
entry is so factually wrong that it risks a real problem. |

However, I'd really question whether ChangeLogs are the place to store such |
| 16 |
a critical piece of documentation in the first place. If it is THAT |
| 17 |
important that users know about a change it should be in news. |

I agree that it seems like we're at the point where "just a little better" |
| 20 |
is becoming the enemy of "already way better than what we have." |
