To expand on this a little bit, as a bit of an outsider to this
community, but a heavy user of git, there isn't much (if anything) in
the way of information that is given by use of keywords in this manner
that you can't get from the VCS with minimal effort.

I have also never seen them used in the git world, although I'm sure
they are by some people. If someone has a solid use-case for them, I'd
love to hear it.
