Revision history [back]

I had a similar problem recently. The main problem was the disjoint release version numbers.

I finally ended up creating essentially empty CHANGELOG.rst files in the newly-imported packages, then using catkin_generate_changelog to fill them in, and editing the results.

That would not work very well for a package with a lot of previous history.
