I have found these useful, because this the only publicly
sent patch to some mailing list that actually states what is
being pushed. There usually are many commits for the same bug
fix or feature, often one commit slightly different from another,
so the post-push mails contain the real thing.
It is rarely useful for daily work, but it is a public searchable
archive.
Of course, if you want to make less visible the work being done
internally in the MySQL server team, you should disable post-push
emails.
