How is this going to look in the "What's in git.git" email? We don't use ChangeLog files in git.git and we don't have notes branches, and we already have a README. Most stuff in contrib/ has its commit messages with a prefix string to make it more clear when looking at the shortlog what is being impacted. Maybe this should be re-written with filter-branch to include a prefix before it merges. -- Shawn.
