This gets suggested every time a do a new version, but I've never been able
to come up with a good scheme for doing it in a way that leaves me very
happy.
The best I can think of is just to keep a manual (!) track of places where
I made changes, and distribute that along with the manual.
I can't do that with the next version, because I've already made a bunch of
changes and haven't kept track of the pages where I have done so. But I can
try to remember to do it for future versions.
FWIW, my own solution to this is simply to print out the manual only once a
year, just before CQWW CW. Then I sit down and re-read all of Appendix A,
just in case there's anything new that I'd like to try in my config file.

PS FWIW, I've never had much luck with change bars, but I could try to
experiment some more when I get some time.
