vcs-to-changelog assumes it's generating a ChangeLog for the entire git
repo, not a subdir.  that's why it works for glibc, and really doesn't
work for us.  unless we got agreement across all projects in here, and
i didn't want to open that can of worms.

i glanced through the script before to see if it could be adjusted to
limit its path, but it didn't seem easy to pull off, so i gave up.

not that i've evaluated it beyond that (i.e. what format it generates).
