Why don't you use git log if you're interested in stories?

git log -- meta/conf/distro/include/distro_tracking_fields.inc

    distro_tracking_fields: move to meta-yocto as seperate files
    
    We are going to take a phased approach of breaking up the
    distro_tracking_fields, first is to remove it from oe-core,
    then create new files in meta-yocto.  We are doing this because
    the distro_tracking_fields is getting unweildly and some of
    the data can be part of a burn down list instead continually
    stored, thus it will get split up.

./meta-yocto/conf/distro/include/upstream_tracking.inc
