Modified files:
gcc : ChangeLog
Log message:
Changelog entry for my commit.
Just saying "modified" for every file and function you changed
is not an acceptable way to document your changes in the ChangeLog
file. You need to say exactly what you changed.
You can look at other ChangeLog entries to see what it should
look like.
Or was there some special reason why your ChangeLog was so terse
and uninformative?
When this happens, it is a big problem, because it will be more
difficult in the future to go back and figure out why you made
these changes and what they were supposed to accomplish.
Please fix these ChangeLog entries.
