Hey all,
Been toying with the idea of splitting the changelog out of the kernel spec
itself, to reduce the size of the spec file. Basically, instead of %changelog
followed by all the entries, it'd be %include %{SOURCE1}, which is a file
'fedora-kernel-changelog', which carries all the usual changelog entries. Its
reasonably trivial to implement, though my current hack-around for 'make clog'
complains about me redefining the clog target. Is shaving 800+ lines out of
the spec file (only to put them in another file) worth the hassle though?
Probably not until we move away from CVS to an SCM that doesn't suck.
It'd be nice if 'make build' slurped the changelog out of the SCM.
