I'm starting to get very tired of editing multiple ChangeLog
files, one for every directory that a commit touches. I'd like
to propose that, instead, we write detailed Git commit messages,
according to the format suggested in the Git manpages[*], and
then generate a single ChangeLog file in a "make dist" hook, as
suggested by Jim Meyering:

If you guys are OK with this, I'll prepare a commit that renames
the existing ChangeLog files to OChangeLog and adds the necessary
hook to generate a top-level ChangeLog on "make dist".
Please do.
