Currently, the manual states that if you send a series and include a changelog in the introduction mail (0 of x), it is not necessary to include a changelog on the individual patches. This is not always convenient: for large patch series it requires going back to the introduction mail when opening each patch, to understand what changed. This patch rewords the paragraph accordingly.
