From: Werner Lemberg
Subject: [freetype2] master ba47af3: ChangeLog housekeeping.
Date: Sun, 25 Jul 2021 01:09:57 -0400 (EDT)

branch: master
commit ba47af32ba6a8a5f2cd5c0a5868c37c6a2665c1c
Author: Werner Lemberg <wl@gnu.org>
Commit: Werner Lemberg <wl@gnu.org>

    ChangeLog housekeeping.
    
    Archive old `ChangeLog` file.
    
    We no longer write ChangeLog entries manually; instead, the file will be
    created from commit messages (which should be formatted in GNU's ChangeLog
    style) by a call to
    
      gitlog-to-changelog --format='%B%n'
    
    or something similar (this script is part of the 'gnulib' repository).

-------------
-
-If you want to contribute to FreeType it is recommended to install the
-`git-merge-changelog` program – we use a `ChangeLog` file, which often
-prevents   simple   merging   due  to   conflicts.    Most   GNU/Linux
-distributions  have a  package  for this  program;  otherwise you  can
-install it via the 'gnulib' git repository.  Detailed instructions can
-be found at the beginning of
-
-  https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnulib.git/tree/lib/git-merge-changelog.c
-
-To make  it actually work, add  to file `.git/config` in  the FreeType
-git repository (or to your `$HOME/.gitconfig` file) the lines

-  [merge "merge-changelog"]
-     name = GNU-style ChangeLog merge driver
