No the second proposes to replace the current ChangeLog with one
auto-generated upon release.
This ChangeLog would in effect be a reformatted `git log` output.
For the simulator this would mean there would no longer be any file
that contained output in the format as:
* file.c (symbol): description.
As Mike already does not include his ChangeLogs in the commit message
(as we do for the rest of gdb/, etc), and the motivation for this
change is to stop writing any text in that format, so likely future
sim/ contributions would not include text in that format either.
Thanks,
Andrew
