> Make a script that creates the Git (or whatever) tag and also appends everything new to the changelog via something like git-shortlog I've seen projects that do this, and it's almost completely worthless. If I wanted to read all the commits, I'd go read the commits; I came to the changelog because I wanted to know if anything important changed.
