[ros-dev] Commit log

[Matthias Kupfer]

Hi folks,

I suggest the following workaround to fix this issue:

- we introduce an additional prefix for a commit message line to mark a 
changelog entry
- the prefix is "[CL]" for a general entry or "[CL:cat1:cat2:cat3]" for an 
hierarchical categorization cat1 -> cat2 -> cat3 aso.
- we limit the changelog to one line - we can generate several entries with 
one commit message (by using multiple changelog lines)

I disagree with xml processing: No semi-XML stufff or more complex operations 
on commit messages..

Request for comments

Matthias
