The commit logs all read “Imported from TARBALL”, though, so I suppose there aren’t individual commits for the patches that can be seen at ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/bash/bash-X.Y-patches, right? Also, there’s no “Imported from ../bash-4.1.tar.gz” message even though 4.1 is the latest release.

I find it unfortunate, too, as it makes it very hard to follow developments. Thanks, Ludo’.
