prepare-ChangeLog lists unmodified functions as modified and marks functions with few changes as deleted

• Component: Tools / Tests
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Paul Hankes Drielsma]

I have a purely subtractive patch that touches many methods in two Objective-C++ file.  In each method, I removed one or two lines.  prepare-ChangeLog is listing all of those methods as having been deleted.  

Possibly related to or a duplicate of

It broke webkit-perl test for GTK in a rather wild way. Why's it trying to exec /usr/bin/non-existent-command?

Tools/Scripts/webkitperl/VCSUtils_unittest/runCommand.pl ........................................... 1/3 Can't exec "/usr/bin/non-existent-command": No such file or directory at /home/slave/webkitgtk/gtk-linux-64-release-tests/build/Tools/Scripts/VCSUtils.pm line 2298.

Looking at the latest GTK results I see the following error:
