That depends a great deal on how the move is implemented. Most proposals involve dropping Changelogs from the tree, so devs would not write to them. Having Changelogs in the tree that users sync requires the creation of a script that will copy the git commit message into the Changelog. If we continued to maintain Changelogs as text files in the git tree then there would not be any change in workflow. Devs would continue to use whatever scripts they're currently using to copy the commit message into the Changelog, or vice-versa. -- Rich
