OK, I'm going to try using the cvs2cl script to automatically create the change log for a release. That means you don't have to update changes.txt when you drop code. yeaahhh! But, you do have to make the commit messages as good or better than the changes.txt message was. boooo! For guidelines on what to put in commit messages see: http://www.red-bean.com/cvs2cl/changelogs.html Remember, the commit messages will now be visible to end users, so try to use whole sentences and valid grammar. Also, the script uses a time window and identical message text to unify separate file log messages into a chronological sequence of activity. So, the rule is, drop everything as close together in time as you can (one drop is best of course, but sometimes it doesn't work that way), and use the same log message for all files related to a particular change.
