The fact that many maintainers have been doing this for years and nobody
complained about it is, though.
It just doesn't make sense to maintain per-branch changelogs if the specfile
is otherwise identical across branches.
+1, I personally use both methods depending on the package differences
among branches. If the differences are small to none I use merges
otherwise cherry-picking. And nobody complained. This definitely should
not be mandated one way or other - it should be left on maintainer's
discretion.
