Above commit message is bad.

Beware when auto-generating control file: You should either document 
*all* pieces changed or (as I often do) *none* of them - i.e. just 
mention that the control file was auto-updated.

...and then later when (auto-)updating changelog, you should separate 
independent changes (despite being commited together) and strip changes 
irrelevant for users - e.g. the fact that the control file was 
autogenerated.



Kind regards,

  - Jonas
