I confess I didn't look at the git history, just at the diffs.

IDK how you made this branch but perhaps a restructuring of the
history would help.  Or maybe that would be a lot of work.  (FAOD I
don't much mind what shape the history is, particularly since I think
we are still finding our feet in workflow / git management terms.)

Do what you think is best, but the bottom line does have to be, I
think, that the changelog entries since the last upload to sid should
document the differences.

I think it is OK if there are other differences further down the
changelog, if that is documented at the top, with something like
"changelog reorganised due to ..." or something.

Yes.

Indeed.

Would you please make a commit with that in ?  Or should I do that
myself after you're done ?
