I don't understand why you need the symlink.  Why not let Emacs create
ChangeLog, then delete it when the commit is done?  Or use any other
file name (if you don't want to see ChangeLog for some reason): the
Change Log mode can be turned on in any file, regardless of its name.
For that matter, why not reuse .git/COMMIT_EDITMSG?
