            Bug ID: 174197
           Summary: Make prepare-ChangeLog -g <commit> generate a more
                    standard ChangeLog entry.
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: ecobos at igalia.com

Make prepare-ChangeLog -g <commit> generate a more standard ChangeLog entry.

Before this change, |prepare-ChangeLog -g HEAD| generated something like:

    <git commit title>

    <git commit long description>

    Need a short description (OOPS!)
    Need the bug URL (OOPS!)

    Reviewed by NOBODY (OOPS!).
    No new tests (OOPS!).

This change converts that in:

    <git commit title>
    Need the bug URL (OOPS!)

    Reviewed by NOBODY (OOPS!).

    <git commit long description>

    No new tests (OOPS!).

This bit me the first time I tried to submit a patch to WebKit, and still I have
to manually edit the ChangeLog every time I use the script.

This generates a more convenient and standard ChangeLog entry.
