How you commit is up to you. This is about how to create the commit
message.

    Eli> AFAIK, Magit does have such a command, but don't ask me what it is...

'magit-generate-changelog', which you can run from your Magit commit
buffer. It's pretty much the same as C-x 4 A
(diff-add-change-log-entries-other-window), which you'd run from a
*vc-diff* buffer. The main difference is that C-x 4 A and C-x 4 a will
put entries into a ChangeLog file or buffer.
