Several times this last week when merging Debian packages I've found MoM
wasn't processing the package for one reason or another, so I ended up
doing the merge by hand. No big deal, except I got irritated at
hand-stitching changelogs back together, so pulled the changelog logic
from MoM and made it into a standalone script. I tossed it up here if
anyone cares:
http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/scripts/merge_changelog
james_w also pointed out another similar (and much shorter) script at
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/vcs-pkg-discuss/2008-January/000101.html
however in testing I found it didn't handle epoch's correctly.
