I though it's a problem of present vs. past tense, not actove/passive voice. The changelog informs about what _was done_ so there is no reason to use present tense or imperative. I think I remember being corrected that something like * dir/kill.c (killer): Add line to kill `foo.' should rather be * dir/kill.c (killer): Added line to kill `foo.' but I presumed that * dir/kill.c (killer): Kill also `foo.' would be a correct description of the same change.
