There are ~35 patches committed each working day. That's a lot of
unnecessary traffic to qemu-devel IMHO.
It's only unnecessary if you don't consider that people might
review patches. When I see "thanks applied" I know e.g. it's not
waiting for review. Or if it is wrong I will comment with priority.
It's a matter of balancing the needs of one group with another.
qemu-devel already has way too much traffic for the vast majority of
people to digest. Adding more traffic just makes that worse.
As a reviewer, you can read qemu-commits to see when something has been
committed.
I have the same problem fwiw. I don't read qemu-commits because I
always look at the contents of origin when I fetch from it to see what
others are doing. Practically speaking, to really review patches, I
think you have to follow master to see what's changing.
I'm open to creative ideas, but my main concern is that when there's a
push in one day of 50 unique patches (which happens), that's a big flood
of email to various threads which gets annoying to sift through.
I don't it's a huge burder to just read another mailing list.
