  Hello,

When someone omits the ChangeLog part in a commit log, the generated
ChangeLog lacks the entry for that commit.  This patch adds a default
entry for each file mentioned in the commit.

	* gen-changelog.py (process_commit): Add a default entry made of
	the content of the subject title.

Signed-off-by: Dodji Seketeli <dodji@redhat.com>
Applied to the mainline.
