-So far, the only intentional deviation from the standards is the use
-of `svn log -v > SVNChangeLog' to generate an SVNChangeLog, rather
-than manual editing. Subversion solves many of the problems in CVS,
-for which the GNU ChangeLog rules are written, the lack of atomic
-commits being one of them. However, this doesn't work for make
-distcheck because it never reaches the SVN working copy, so perhaps a
-better mechanism is needed.
