Interesting.  That's out ot topic, but I think that it is better to
generate the commit message form the ChangeLog instead of the other way
around because it is easy to have only a git log and nothing in the
ChangeLog, and because it is much easier to edit a ChangeLog rather than
edit the git history.  I guess that for these two issues there are
possibilities to set up filters or interfaces to make it easier in git
too with a bit of work/code, just like how git-merge-changelog makes it
easy to use ChangeLog for git logs.

And also probably the debian package was updated recently.

I confirm, everything is working nicely, now, thanks Bruno!
