Our ChangeLog is generated by basically redirecting the output of 'git log' into it so, as can be expected, it has only gotten bigger as development has progressed. As of today, its size has reached pretty much comical levels: $ du -sk ChangeLog 11328 ChangeLog All of that for information *literally nobody* cares about: end users and distro maintainers have proper release notes lovingly compiled for them, while developers peruse the history either by calling 'git log' directly or through their favorite $EDITOR's git integration. Replacing the generated ChangeLog with a short message pointing interested parties to the git repository does not only reduce the size of the unpacked sources from 259904 KiB to 248576 KiB (~4% saving): from a quick test on my laptop, doing so reduces the size of the *compressed* release archive from 15140 KiB to 12364 KiB (~18% saving) and also takes the time needed to run 'make distcheck' down from 4:44 to 4:21 (~8% saving).
