No manual entry for git-changelog

I believe it would be nice to see a manual when prompted git changelog with --help.
Especially since it's pretty much ready: https://github.com/pawamoy/git-changelog#usage-command-line.

Describe the solution you'd like

Release git changelog extension with a man page.

Additional context

I'm all for distributing manual pages alongside Python packages, but I believe there is no standard way to do that. Or maybe you know how to do it?

I've seen possible solutions like including manual pages with setuptools' data_files or Hatch's shared-data, but even with that, tools like pip simply do not know how/where to install them. Every user would have to set their MANPATH to every man directory contained in every virtualenv or Python site-packages on their system. That's not automated.

My copier-uv template already adds the relevant files to sdist/wheels. Just need to write a man page now and wait for uv to support them like pipx does.
