It isn't. Following hundreds of links a day of the offchance that one
might be wrongly reverting something or wrongly committing something isn't
a reasonable solution to the problem. The idea of this wishlist request
is that the patches themselves go by in email - exactly as committed,
which may differ from how they were sent to gcc-patches, or they may not
have been sent to gcc-patches - for bogus reversions, or bogus changes
(e.g. other changes in the same tree that weren't part of the given patch
and shouldn't have been committed) to be spotted.
