#169 Fails to ignore history before changelog file was changed
Closed by nphilipp. Opened by nphilipp.

SSIA, in the python-arrow pkg repository in staging, the current tip of rawhide (commit b412562d941e7d7dd756a60e4969c86c4689bd75) writes the historical changelog into the changelog file, but it continues to generate entries for previous commits:

nils@makake:~/dist-git/stg/fedora/rpms/python-arrow (rawhide)> rpmautospec generate-changelog .

- RPMAUTOSPEC: unresolvable merge

Whether or not the top changelog entry should be missing is debatable (it changed the spec file, too), but the next two should definitely not be there. Also, the bottom ones look generated and (purposefully) bail out on a commit merging two branches which it can't resolve.
