In order to get some data on this I just looked back at 45 of these from
the last month, and found:
9 that looked real, or at least feasible
2 that were caused by updates to .po files
4 that were caused by automatically generated debian/control files
1 caused by updates to config.{guess,sub}
29 caused by quilt interaction
So 64% of these were caused by quilt interactions, and all the other
spurious ones were less than 50% of what's left, indicating that quilt
is the place to focus our efforts to make these merge proposals have
much more signal than noise.
Thanks,
James
