If you're not sure, please make up your mind.  I agree it's quite a hack
but now it's in the archives for others to find.  Doing this in a single
regexp is a bit tricky and asking a user to write a perl snippet is even
worse, imho.  Especially if would turn out that stripping changelog bits
is the only thing that the hook is getting used for, in the end.  I have
gotten more careful to provide generic solutions to specific problems in
anticipation of possible future desires.

I could imagine that leaving git-svn alone and adding a hook to git-log
would be more useful, though.
