I am also author of a program that I maintain in Debian. I use the
debian/changelog for all of my entries, even if the versions aren't
included in the archive. I also link ChangeLog to debian/changelog in the
tarball. You're free to handle it your own way, but that's just an example
to go on.

You should include the changelog entry so it is documented for future
interest. Acknowledging NMU's in your changelog is very important.
