I'd like to commit the following patch to the Emacs unicode branch.
It changes unicode-branch version references from "22" to "23", and renames
the unicode-branch-specific ChangeLog files to "ChangeLog.unicode" (from
"ChangeLog.22").
OK?
Thanks,
-Miles

Thank you for taking care of this matter. But, I vaguely
remember that the reason I changed ChangeLog.unicode (I was
using it when I was working on it locally) to ChangeLog.22
was that if the extention of ChangeLog file is not digits,
something wrong happened. I'm not sure now.
Could you please commit the changes after you confirm that
your or Dave's method for automatically selecting a correct
ChangeLog file name still works?

Hmmm, that looks good; I often edit one branch of emacs using an emacs
executable from a different branch, so switching on the file name seems
best.
Based on the above, I wrote this:
(defvar change-log-default-name-alist nil
"Alist used to set `change-log-default-name' locally, based on the buffer filename.
Each element's car is a regexp; if the regexp matches the
buffer's filename, the cdr of the element is used as the value of
`change-log-default-name'.")
(defun change-log-set-local-default-name ()
"Maybe set `change-log-default-name', based `change-log-default-name-alist'."
(let ((clauses change-log-default-name-alist))
(when (stringp (buffer-file-name))
(while clauses
(let ((clause (pop clauses)))
(when (string-match (car clause) (buffer-file-name))
(set (make-local-variable 'change-log-default-name) (cdr clause))
(setq clauses nil)))))))
(add-hook 'find-file-hook 'change-log-set-local-default-name)
Then I can add something like:
(setq change-log-default-name-alist
'(("emacs[-/]unicode[-/]" . "ChangeLog.22")
("emacs[-/]lexbind[-/]" . "ChangeLog.lexbind")
("emacs[-/]tiling[-/]" . "ChangeLog.tiling")))
[Following my personal directory-naming conventions.]
Thanks,
-Miles

I use such "non-numeric ChangeLog extensions" -- e.g., in my example
code you quoted, "ChangeLog.tiling" -- regularly for my other branches
with no obvious problems.
If there is a subtle bug I haven't noticed with such ChangeLogs, we
should fix that bug. The fact that you originally used the ".unicode"
extension originally confirms that it's at least the "natural" name. :-)
Anyway, I'll do one more brief test with "unicode" in particular and
then commit it.
Thanks,
-Miles

Ok, tested (briefly :-) and committed.
Everybody remember to update your ChangeLog hacks...

ISTR that extensions with more than three letters are problematic on
MS DOS (and maybe MS Windows? no idea). How about "Changelog.ucs"?

Why use an extension at all?
"ChangeLog-unicode" anyone?

Why would that be any better on a 8.3 filesystem?

No, there won't be any problems on those platforms. On MS-DOS, the
name will be truncated to ChangeLo.uni, but if no other file maps to
the same file name, nothing bad would happen.

Now, _that_ would cause problems on MS-DOS (because the name after
truncation to 8+3 will clash with the other ChangeLog files).
It's true that the Unicode branch is replete with such clashes, but
perhaps we should avoid adding one more.
