Summary of changes to be applied to the 33 driver modules Adding XORG_CHANGELOG v1.2 macro in configure.ac Adding CHANGELOG_CMD in Makefile.am Adding ChangeLog in .gitignore Deleting hand written ChangeLog file. For xf86-video-vmware/vmwarectrl nested module, a CangeLog is not required as the sample module is not shipped and changes will be logged in the root ChangeLog I'll provide a tar file with the patches.
Created attachment 29353 [details] Patches and script to add ChangeLog command
If we're mass modifying this many modules, I'd like to wait until we get xorg-macros 1.3 out (should be today or tomorrow) and then change the patches to instead do XORG_MACROS_VERSION(1.3) and then replace XORG_MANPAGE_SECTIONS, XORG_RELEASE_VERSION & XORG_CHANGELOG with the new XORG_DEFAULT_OPTIONS. Thanks for tackling all these!

It will be just as easy to upgrade to version 1.3 macro for the whole driver directory in one go. The committer has only one issue to check for errors. I'd feel safer. I noticed XORG_DEFAULT_OPTIONS was coming and would need to be deployed to the ~275 modules. Perhaps I can help with that. I haven't done ChangeLog for mesa and pixman, they have a complex configuration I don't feel comfortable changing.

Perhaps I can help with that. fwiw, instead of submitting patches it'd be better to submit a shell script that modifies each file and prepares the commit message automatically. The recent cvsignore patch files were a bit awkward to handle.
Or just get direct committ access instead of going through intermediaries like us...
