6 No.

8 My personal opinion on it is that the ChangeLog isn't auto-generated
9 because it's NOT the same as the commit messages. The commit messages
10 are detailed technical info about a commit, while the ChangeLog is a
11 short version.
12
13 If we want to enforce the changelog being the shortlog output, that's
14 doable as long as all devs actually use it.
