That's fairly trivial. In the current (and misguided) version with
chronological output, rev-tree will do it all for you, in fact:

	rev-tree $1 ^$2

In the older and more useful version, it was only slightly more complex:

 base=$(gitXnormid.sh -c $1) || exit 1
 
+if [ -n "$2" ]; then
+    endpoint=$(gitXnormid.sh -c $2) || exit 1
+    if rev-tree $base $endpoint | grep -q $base:3; then
+        base=
+    else
+        rev-tree --edges $base $endpoint | sed 's/[a-z0-9]*:1//g' > $TMPCL
+    fi
+fi
 changelog $base
 rm $TMPCL $TMPCM
