[gnugo-devel] ChangeLog entries

[bump]

It is helpful if anyone submitting a patch drafts a line,
or several if appropriate, for inclusion in ChangeLog. These 
lines can go in the patch comments.

See gunnar_3_12.4 at
http://mail.gnu.org/pipermail/gnugo-devel/2002-November/003484.html
as an example. The 3 lines:

- somewhere() revised
- new autohelper functions [ox]_alive_somewhere
- autohelper functions [ox]_somewhere revised

found near the end of the patch comments are for ChangeLog.

You don't need to explain in too much detail what the patch
does.  Sometimes just:

- bugfix in [function name here] 

or

- owl tuning

is sufficient. This is helpful to the maintainer who adds the
patch to the CVS.

If the patch adds new functions it is good to name these.
