It tells CI systems not to run any tests on this commit. Both Cirrus and Jenkins understand it, among others. For example, if you browse to https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-src/commits/main and hover over the green checkmark next to this commit, you'll see a bunch of "skipped" symbols. So I use it just to save resources. I think I could put it on a separate line, though. -Alan
