    [gdb] Move ChangeLog files to archive dir
   =20
    We stopped updating ChangeLog files in 2021, and they are no longer
    maintained.
   =20
    If I want to see history, I use git log, so I don't use them for any pu=
rpose.
   =20
    And they're in my way when I'm searching for files, grepping, or refact=
oring
    using sed.
   =20
    Move them out of the way, into a root-level directory named archive
    (alternative names: legacy, deprecated, attic, stale, historical,
    unmaintained).
   =20
    Result of:
    ...
    for f in $(find gdb* -name "ChangeLog*"); do
        dir=3D$(dirname $f)
        f=3D$(basename $f)
        u=3Darchive/$dir
        mkdir -p $u
        git mv $dir/$f $u/$f
    done
    ...
   =20
    Also drop ignoring ChangeLog files in some pre-commit tools.
   =20
    A less impactful but also less effective change would be to move <dir>/=
ChangeLog
    into <dir>/archive/ChangeLog.
