A suggestion - since you are using GIT, you could automatically
generate the changelog from the patch comments and no longer keep this
file under revision control. People using GIT would just run gitk or
git log to see what has changed. For people using snapshot or
releases, you would would put the changelog in the tarball.

It's even easier if you only accept patches in text/plain format and
use GIT (or other tools on top) to automatically import the patches
from the saved e-mail (the author information being automatically
preserved).
