Oh! Sorry about that. Thanks for pointing it out. This is the sort of mistake that will probably make me 1) start pushing initially to a "next"-style branch (hoping to catch mistakes before pushing to a read-only "master") or 2) reinstate use of a version-controlled ChangeLog file. A third alternative (perhaps in addition to #1): adjust the gitlog-to-changelog script to make selected, scripted corrections, fixing errors like this, so that the generated ChangeLog will be correct. I'm maintaining a list of these. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
