I can only speak for myself, but in my few years of GDB development,
I have never missed having the exact dependencies in the ChangeLog.
I really like concise ChangeLogs because they tell me what files
were modified as part of a change set, and also give me a very rough
idea of what was done inside each file.  When the ChangeLog becomes
too verbose, it becomes more difficult for me to use them.
