I am right now confused. I go to the Emacs git trunc, switch into the
lisp directory:
the latest ChangeLog is ChangeLog.17
its most recent entry (this is not the most update git version of emacs) is

So git log does not show the ChangeLogs neither?!

However when for example run vc-print-log in abbrev.el
is seems to show the ChangeLog but not the git commit message.
Is this correct??

So in order to have the same behavior for hg, what do we need that the

 hg log  format is *exactly* the same as the
 git log format?


Thanks
