# This is a prologue that allows to run a perl script as an executable
# on systems that are compliant to a POSIX version before POSIX:2017.
# On such systems, the usual invocation of an executable through execlp()
# or execvp() fails with ENOEXEC if it is a script that does not start
# with a #! line.  The script interpreter mentioned in the #! line has
# to be /bin/sh, because on GuixSD systems that is the only program that
# has a fixed file name.  The second line is essential for perl and is
# also useful for editing this file in Emacs.  The next two lines below
# are valid code in both sh and perl.  When executed by sh, they re-execute
# the script through the perl program found in $PATH.  The '-x' option
# is essential as well; without it, perl would re-execute the script
# through /bin/sh.  When executed by perl, the next two lines are a no-op.

Usage: $ME [OPTIONS] [ARGS]

Convert git log output to ChangeLog format.  If present, any ARGS
are passed to "git log".  To avoid ARGS being parsed as options to
$ME, they may be preceded by '--'.

OPTIONS:

   --amend=FILE FILE maps from an SHA1 to perl code (i.e., s/old/new/) that
                  makes a change to SHA1's commit log text or metadata.
   --append-dot append a dot to the first line of each commit message if
                  there is no other punctuation or blank at the end.
   --no-cluster never cluster commit messages under the same date/author
                  header; the default is to cluster adjacent commit messages
                  if their headers are the same and neither commit message
                  contains multiple paragraphs.
   --srcdir=DIR the root of the source tree, from which the .git/
                  directory can be derived.
   --since=DATE convert only the logs since DATE;
                  the default is to convert all log entries.
   --until=DATE convert only the logs older than DATE.
   --ignore-matching=PAT ignore commit messages whose first lines match PAT.
   --ignore-line=PAT ignore lines of commit messages that match PAT.
   --format=FMT set format string for commit subject and body;
                  see 'man git-log' for the list of format metacharacters;
                  the default is '%s%n%b%n'
   --strip-tab  remove one additional leading TAB from commit message lines.
   --strip-cherry-pick  remove data inserted by "git cherry-pick";
                  this includes the "cherry picked from commit ..." line,
                  and the possible final "Conflicts:" paragraph.
   --help       display this help and exit
   --version    output version information and exit

EXAMPLE:

  $ME --since=2008-01-01 > ChangeLog
  $ME -- -n 5 foo > last-5-commits-to-branch-foo

SPECIAL SYNTAX:

The following types of strings are interpreted specially when they appear
at the beginning of a log message line.  They are not copied to the output.

  Copyright-paperwork-exempt: Yes
    Append the "(tiny change)" notation to the usual "date name email"
    ChangeLog header to mark a change that does not require a copyright
    assignment.
  Co-authored-by: Joe User <user\@example.com>
    List the specified name and email address on a second
    ChangeLog header, denoting a co-author.
  Signed-off-by: Joe User <user\@example.com>
    These lines are simply elided.

In a FILE specified via --amend, comment lines (starting with "#") are ignored.
FILE must consist of <SHA,CODE+> pairs where SHA is a 40-byte SHA1 (alone on
a line) referring to a commit in the current project, and CODE refers to one
or more consecutive lines of Perl code.  Pairs must be separated by one or
more blank line.

Here is sample input for use with --amend=FILE, from coreutils:
