Hi Guido,

for a while, I've been missing an option in git-dch to automatically
commit the resulting changelog. In my work flow, I regularly think I'm
done packaging, so I generate the changelog using git-dch, commit it and
then build the package. Usually I find something wrong in the package,
changelog, etc, so I get back to my git checkout, throw away the
changelog commit, fix the issue, run git-dch again, commit the result,
build the package again, etc.

Sometimes I go through this cycle a handful times, so having to retype
the same "Updating changelog for 1.0.0-1 release" commit message
everytime again gets boring.

So, it would be good to be able to run git-dch --commit and have it
commit the generated changelog automatically. Does this make sense?

I'm working on a patch now, I'll send it over as soon as I'm done with
it.

Gr.

Matthijs
