It's an etiquette thing. Subject+Sign-off+Empty body is bad form. AUH updates are a form of "trivial update" that every project has. "Update $X from version $Y to $Z" is what a human would normally put. It's weird looking at git log of nothing but subject+signed-off-by. I'm not going to object further on this point, but I don't get it. -- Tom
