FWIW, I think that the extra "ChangeLog" bring 2 benefits:
  - it makes it clear we're starting a ChangeLog entry:
  - it reduces the chances of a false-positive when parsing
    the revision log for one or more CL entries. I found this out
    while developing a parser that I use in the context of
    the gdb release.

Small bonus:  When you modify the root ChangeLog file, the entry
ends up looking like this...

| ChangeLog:
|
|         * file: description.

... instead of ...

| <nothing?>:
|
|         * file: description.

... or maybe ...

| /
|
|         * file: description.
