There isn't a single log that contains this information.

At https://github.com/plone/buildout.coredev/tree/5.0/plips you can find 
the buildout configurations for many PLIPs. Each PLIP configuration 
references branches of various packages that were changed for the PLIP. 
With some work you could obtain the commit history for each of those 
branches. But at this point, for a PLIP that was merged some time ago, 
the branch may have been deleted and it may be hard to determine at what 
point the branch started. There are also plenty of smaller changes that 
happen directly without going through the PLIP process.
