# SYNOPSIS
#
#   AX_GENERATE_CHANGELOG()
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
#   Builds a rule for generating a ChangeLog file from version control
#   system commit messages.  Currently, the only supported VCS is git, but
#   support for others could be added in future.
#
#   Defines GENERATE_CHANGELOG_RULES which should be substituted in your
#   Makefile.
#
#   Usage example:
#
#   configure.ac:
#
#     AX_GENERATE_CHANGELOG
#
#   Makefile.am:
#
#     @GENERATE_CHANGELOG_RULES@
#     CHANGELOG_START = 0.2.3^
#     dist-hook: dist-ChangeLog
#
#   ChangeLog (stub committed to VCS):
#
#     The ChangeLog is auto-generated when releasing.
#     If you are seeing this, use 'git log' for a detailed list of changes.
#
#   This results in a "dist-ChangeLog" rule being added to the Makefile.
#   When run, "dist-ChangeLog" will generate a ChangeLog in the
#   $(top_distdir), using $(CHANGELOG_GIT_FLAGS) to format the output from
#   "git log" being run in $(CHANGELOG_GIT_DIR).
#
#   Unless Automake is initialised with the 'foreign' option, a dummy
#   ChangeLog file must be committed to VCS in $(top_srcdir), containing the
#   text above (for example).  It will be substituted by the automatically
#   generated ChangeLog during "make dist".
