Interesting git-based changelog workflow

[Aristotle Pagaltzis <pagaltzis@gmx.de>]

Hi all,

since the changelog is such a big burden in the release making of
Perl, maybe the workflow Dustin Sallings uses could be of use?

http://dustin.github.com/2009/01/17/changelog.html

Summary: git lets you write “commit messages” for tags just like
for regular commits. Dustin puts a prose summary of changes and
abbreviated shortlog in there. This way he has a basis around
which to write tools. (The post is about a small program he wrote
that creates HTML changelogs from his tag objects’ bodies.)
