I haven't yet looked at what Emacs has implemented now… but you may want
to take a look at Org.  The ChangeLog there is generated for only the
segment of commits between releases to Emacs.  If we come up with a
reliable method to (auto-)mark the latest commit that has been picked up
for the ChangeLog, then it becomes trivial to a) do the rollover, either
manually or automatically; and b) edit entries in the ChangeLog for
style or substance that have fallen behind that barrier since the
auto-generation from commit messages will not touch them.


Regards,
Achim.
