Hi Marco,
Keep in mind that I know less about this stuff than
most here. I'll attempt to answer these - others: jump
in if I say something incorrect or that can be clarified.

The ChangeLog file in the directory. The procedure for
checking in a change tells you that you're not supposed
to use "patch" to update a ChangeLog because things might
have changed between the time you've prepared the patch and
the time you're committing it. You're supposed to update
the ChangeLog directly before committing the patch. As for
the SVN log entry, I simply cut and paste that from the
ChangeLog:

>Is the svn diff using the same style as "diff -Naur"?
Not sure. I just learn the minimal of what works for me. :)
Looking forward to seeing you more involved in this.
It's the Next Step from simply building the compiler.
