+See pod/perlrepository.pod for more details on using git and accessing the
+commit history.
+
+In perl releases prior to 2009, the source tarball included a collection
+of Changes files that listed the individual commits that had gone into
+each release. Since these files had become very large, and since the
+same information is now freely available online, it was decided to remove
+them from subsequent releases.
+
+If you need access to these removed files, then they can be be found most
+recently in the 5.8.9 and 5.10.0 tarballs, at
+
+ http://www.cpan.org/src/perl-5.8.9.tar.gz
+ http://www.cpan.org/src/perl-5.10.0.tar.gz
+
+The contents of the files in question can mostly be regenerated using git
+commands. The following table shows the equivalents. Note that the files
+prior to Changes5.005 were not simple lists of commits, so can't be
+recreated just by running the git command. As it happens, even the latter
+ones are not exact equivalents. This is due to a combination of errors in
+the original Changes files, and "impedance mismatches" when the previous
+version control data was imported into git in December 2008.
+
+For example, the Changes5.005 file includes 206 spurious entries from the
+maint5.004 Perforce branch.
+
+Running the following command with the range argument shown in the table
+will produce *approximately* the same list of changes in the specified
+file shown from the listed tarball.
+
+ git log --name-status <range>
+
+ file tarball <range> argument to 'git log'
