I suspect you thought that we were asking for some text to be used as revision history? Here is what a ChangeLog entry looks like: 2011-12-27 Doug Evans * dwarf2read.c (struct dwarf2_cu): Delete members first_fn, last_fn, cached_fn. (struct function_range): Delete. (initialize_cu_func_list, add_to_cu_func_list): Delete. All callers updated. (check_cu_functions): Ditto. You can have a look at the couple of sections that explain ChangeLogs in the GNU Coding Standards (the link brings you directly to the relevant section): http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#Change-Logs Please let me know if you have any problems creating one and I will write it for you (this time!). -- Joel
