Note that ChangeLog entries are automatically merged to the top with
today's date, but you still might want to check them to see that too
much is not being included, or whitespace between entries is not missing.
In particular, check the ChangeLog entries (eg in case too many
entries have been included or whitespace between entries needs fixing).
bzrmerge tries to fix up the dates to today's date, but it only does
this where there are conflicts. If you used the changelog_merge plugin,
there won't be any conflicts, and (at time of writing) you will need
to adjust dates by hand.
