Emacs master ChangeLog files now generated automatically

I installed the recently-discussed procedure for generating ChangeLog files automatically from commit messages. When you do a 'git pull' next, expect to see many ChangeLog files renamed to ChangeLog.12 or whatever. From now on, ordinary commits should not need to edit ChangeLog files; instead, they should merely have commit messages that look like entries in a top-level ChangeLog file (a file that is generated automatically, and is not stored in the repository).

I installed this change on Emacs's master branch; other branches can incorporate the change as needed.

For more, please see the file 'CONTRIBUTING' on the master branch, or see Bug#19113, or see my week-ago email on the topic, here:
