Emacs ChangeLog generation and commit messages

Emacs has a very useful facility.  You press “C-x 4 a” in a place where
you make changes, and the editor automatically opens the right ChangeLog
file and adds a draft entry to it, like this:

2023-11-06  Florian Weimer  <fweimer@redhat.com>

	* c-opts.cc (c_common_post_options): █

Is there something like this that works with commit messages and
produces output compatible with GCC's expectations?

Thanks,
Florian
