"Change Log" vs "Changelog"?

See original GitHub issue

Hi, I have a question. A CHANGELOG.md file generated by standard-version has a “Change Log” as the first-level heading now. See ⬇️

https://github.com/conventional-changelog/standard-version/blob/25300ff44d398cb48889111fb2b55353265a77db/CHANGELOG.md

Which are the words “Change Log” and “Changelog” correct?

For example, Wikipedia says “Changelog”, and I see “Changelog” more than “Change Log” (or “Change log”) on the internet.

I’m not an English native, so I’m happy if anyone would help this question!
