12 Ok pretty much what I said in my previous email. In this case you edit
13 the ChangeLog but the "added bugref" text will be appended to
14 Changelog instead of fixing your previous commit message. In my
15 opinion we have two options here
16
17 1) Ignore commit messages that only affect ChangeLogs. This requires
18 the ChangeLog entry to be kept on $VCS cause it is easier
19
20 OR
21 2) Remove the head -1 ChangeLog entry and insert the new one.
22
23 In both cases, the ChangeLogs need to be on $VCS
24
25
26 The only advantage for having the post-commit server generating the
27 ChangeLogs is the reduce $VCS size. I can't see any other advantages
28 whatsoever
