I personally just describe the changes in the cover letter.

In fact, while not a lot of people do this, git-backport-diff
(from https://github.com/codyprime/git-scripts.git)
is a handy tool to show which patches changed since the
previous version, and it only works if the change log
is in the cover letter.

Or you can stick --- in the commit log as you have found out -
but that depends on the patch author being careful to log
all edits.
