The individual patches is better. It's typical to leave the entire changelog
after the ---, and not just the current version. I found what I was actually
looking for was in the v4 changelog.

It's not a huge deal, but if the goal is to get people (and not just me) to
review the code, we want to make it as easy for them as possible to get the
necessary context to start reviewing. No doubt certain maintainer may feel
differently.
