Ah, ok, and you do that probably over multiple emacs sessions so that
the buffer isn't there anymore.  You might as well customize
change-log-default-name to "MyTmpChangeLog" or something so that the
name doesn't clash with a generated, untracked file which might be
deleted or re-generated at will.
