# git_changelog --master-only --brief --oldest-first --since='start-date'
|

# To find the appropriate start date, use:
|
||||
# git show $(git merge-base REL9_5_STABLE master)
|
||||
# git show --summary $(git merge-base REL9_5_STABLE master)
|

# where the branch to mention is the previously forked-off branch. This

# shows the last commit before that branch was made.
