While they are not generally interesting for people to read, they can be
useful to see where a patch has been pushed, i.e., if it will be
released very soon. The specific contents of the patch would then not be
very interesting, but the fact that a patch with revid this-and-that has
been pushed to this-and-that tree might be valuable.
