+@cindex mode, Log Edit
+Buffers for entering/editing log messages for changes which are about
+to be committed are put into Log Edit mode.
+
+Sometimes the log buffer contains default text when you enter it,
+typically the last log message entered.  If it does, mark and point
+are set around the entire contents of the buffer so that it is easy to
+kill the contents of the buffer with @kbd{C-w}.
+
+@findex log-edit-insert-changelog
+If you work by writing entries in the @file{ChangeLog}
+(@pxref{(emacs)Change Log}) and then commit the change under revision
+control, you can generate the Log Edit text from the ChangeLog using
+@kbd{C-a C-a} (@kbd{log-edit-insert-changelog}).  This looks for
+entries for the file(s) concerned in the top entry in the ChangeLog
+and uses those paragraphs as the log text.  This text is only inserted
+if the top entry was made under your user name on the current date.
+@xref{(emacs)Change Logs and VC}, for the opposite way of
+working---generating ChangeLog entries from the revision control log.
+
+In the Log Edit buffer, @kbd{C-c C-f} (@kbd{M-x log-edit-show-files})
+shows the list of files to be committed in case you need to check
+that.
+
+When you have finished editing the log message, type @kbd{C-c C-c} to
+exit the buffer and commit the change.
