Why don't we simply have a NEWS file in GIT, and require that non-trivial commits or patch series include an update to NEWS, so the NEWS file gets populated at time the feature/bug fix gets merged.
I'm strongly against adding more generated files to the repository; if anything, we should have *less* of them[1]. But if we required the source file, docs/news.html.in, to be updated along with notable changes instead, I would be all for it! :) [1] Hello, HACKING! -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization
