The addition of the "Summary:" gunk (which there seems to be no way to
turn off?) and possibly other headers at the start of the log buffer has
broken the `log-edit-strip-single-file-name' functionality.

The following bit of log-edit-insert-changelog always fails now:

 (goto-char (point-min))
    (when (and log-edit-strip-single-file-name (looking-at "\\*\\s-+"))

because it finds itself looking at "Summary:".
