23 # This is a prologue that allows to run a perl script as an executable
24 # on systems that are compliant to a POSIX version before POSIX:2017.
25 # On such systems, the usual invocation of an executable through execlp()
26 # or execvp() fails with ENOEXEC if it is a script that does not start
27 # with a #! line. The script interpreter mentioned in the #! line has
28 # to be /bin/sh, because on GuixSD systems that is the only program that
29 # has a fixed file name. The second line is essential for perl and is
30 # also useful for editing this file in Emacs. The next two lines below
31 # are valid code in both sh and perl. When executed by sh, they re-execute
32 # the script through the perl program found in $PATH. The '-x' option
33 # is essential as well; without it, perl would re-execute the script
34 # through /bin/sh. When executed by perl, the next two lines are a no-op.

70 Usage: $ME [OPTIONS] [ARGS]
72 Convert git log output to ChangeLog format. If present, any ARGS
73 are passed to "git log". To avoid ARGS being parsed as options to
74 $ME, they may be preceded by '--'.
78 --amend=FILE FILE maps from an SHA1 to perl code (i.e., s/old/new/) that
79 makes a change to SHA1's commit log text or metadata.
80 --append-dot append a dot to the first line of each commit message if
81 there is no other punctuation or blank at the end.
82 --no-cluster never cluster commit messages under the same date/author
83 header; the default is to cluster adjacent commit messages
84 if their headers are the same and neither commit message
85 contains multiple paragraphs.
86 --srcdir=DIR the root of the source tree, from which the .git/
87 directory can be derived.
88 --since=DATE convert only the logs since DATE;
89 the default is to convert all log entries.
90 --until=DATE convert only the logs older than DATE.
91 --ignore-matching=PAT ignore commit messages whose first lines match PAT.
92 --ignore-line=PAT ignore lines of commit messages that match PAT.
93 --format=FMT set format string for commit subject and body;
94 see 'man git-log' for the list of format metacharacters;
95 the default is '%s%n%b%n'
96 --strip-tab remove one additional leading TAB from commit message lines.
97 --strip-cherry-pick remove data inserted by "git cherry-pick";
98 this includes the "cherry picked from commit ..." line,
99 and the possible final "Conflicts:" paragraph.
100 --help display this help and exit
101 --version output version information and exit

110 The following types of strings are interpreted specially when they appear
111 at the beginning of a log message line. They are not copied to the output.
113 Copyright-paperwork-exempt: Yes
114 Append the "(tiny change)" notation to the usual "date name email"
115 ChangeLog header to mark a change that does not require a copyright
117 Co-authored-by: Joe User <user\@example.com>
118 List the specified name and email address on a second
119 ChangeLog header, denoting a co-author.
120 Signed-off-by: Joe User <user\@example.com>
121 These lines are simply elided.
123 In a FILE specified via --amend, comment lines (starting with "#") are ignored.
124 FILE must consist of <SHA,CODE+> pairs where SHA is a 40-byte SHA1 (alone on
125 a line) referring to a commit in the current project, and CODE refers to one
126 or more consecutive lines of Perl code. Pairs must be separated by one or

137 # Change the author to be Paul. Note the escaped "@":
