Lessen focus on ChangeLog files, as opposed to change log entries.
This is in preparation for generating the former automatically from the latter. * admin/notes/bugtracker, admin/notes/copyright, admin/notes/newfile: ChangeLog -> change log * admin/notes/changelogs: Remove, merging old contents to ... * admin/notes/repo: ... here. * doc/emacs/maintaining.texi (Change Log): Mention that ChangeLog files may be copied to or from a version control system. * doc/emacs/trouble.texi (Sending Patches): Point to the commit messages. * doc/lispref/intro.texi (Acknowledgments): ChangeLog file -> change log entries. * doc/lispref/tips.texi (Library Headers): Emacs uses a version control system. * etc/CONTRIBUTE: Give advice about git commit messages and how to generate proposed patches containing them.
