Emacs generally follows the GNU coding standards when it comes to ChangeLogs:
|
|
http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Change-Logs.html
|
|
|
|
One exception is that we still sometimes quote `like-this' (as the
|
|
standards used to recommend) rather than 'like-this' (as they do now),
|
|
because `...' is so widely used elsewhere in Emacs.

|
|
If installing changes written by someone else, make the ChangeLog
|
|
entry in their name, not yours.

|
There is no need to make change log entries for files such as NEWS,
|
|
MAINTAINERS, and FOR-RELEASE.
|
|
"There is no need" means you don't have to, but you can if you want to.

|
|
There is no need to indicate regeneration of files such as configure
|
|
in ChangeLog.

Preferred form for several entries with the same content:
|
|
|
|
* help.el (view-lossage):
|
|
* kmacro.el (kmacro-edit-lossage):
|
|
* edmacro.el (edit-kbd-macro): Fix docstring, lossage is now 300 keys.
|
|
|
|
(Rather than anything involving "ditto" and suchlike.)
