[MonoDevelop] Search for parent changelogs

[Marcos Marín]

Re: [MonoDevelop] Search for parent changelogs

The problem I see with this radio button approach is, what if there are n
levels in the tree? for example
MD_ROOT/Extras/BooBinding

you might have a ChangeLog in MD_ROOT, Extras and BooBinding.

What if instead there was a "Select ChangeLog" button and this would bring
up a dialog with a List of ChangeLogs, one for each level in the tree, and a
small (will be created) next to each that does not exist?

Just my two cents.
