And here the ChangeLog entry for the changes:

But HACKING says "No more ChangeLog files".

No more manually maintained ChangeLog files. But we still require ChangeLog entries, because we now have an automatically generated ChangeLog file scraped from git entries (necessary because GNU Coding Standards still mandate a ChangeLog in the distribution tarball, usable by someone that is not using git to build the sources). It's just that your ChangeLog entry now goes into git as the commit message instead of into a ChangeLog file.
