FWIW, I can't remember the last time I looked at a ChangeLog file.

OTOH, I would really appreciate if people could be careful to always
include some kind of file information on the first line of their commit.
Too often I see commits whose first line doesn't unambiguously indicate
which part of Emacs's code is changed.
