I think it would be better if line 3+ would be exact ChangeLog entries
format-wise, so that you can still use emacs' ChangeLog facilities
(`add-change-log-entry'). I don't really want to write the changed file and function names on my own, and adding them correctly is exactly what
that function does very well.

This ends up looking rather ugly in the history, and I would hate to see VCS history bent merely to conform to tools usage.

Rather, the history should be as clean and exact as possible. If elisp functions need to be written to convert ChangeLog entries to a suitable format, I can do that.

Also, in magit if you press 'C' on any diff hunk, it auto-generates a properly formatted ChangeLog-style comment into the current commit log.

But only the file, not the function...
