1. The general opinion of svn people is that traditional ChangeLogs
aren't particularly useful anymore, since we have atomic, global
commits. 'svn log' can generate a ChangeLog anytime you want.

2. It is EXTREMELY BAD to have a pre-commit hook modify the
transaction: don't do it! There's currently no way for the working
copy to find out about it. After the commit finishes, the working copy
assumes that the file it sent is exactly what went into the repository.
