+# Avoids changelog conflicts by assuming additions-only, which is by far the common case.
+# In the rare case where branch b1 rebases against branch b2 and both branches
+# modified the same changelog entry, you'll end up with that changelog entry
+# duplicated, which is easily identifiable and fixable.
