This won't happen in the scheme I had in mind. When you scan for 1.2.3
you must take the changelog from git corresponding to version 1.2.3, and
there won't be a "since 1.2.3". However you have to check out the
changelogs for all the versions you want to include in the feed, for
instance the ten last versions, but this should be efficient enough.
Another alternative would be to detect the indentation depth from the
latest version and then only scan headings of the same depth for the
older version numbers.
