Having 20 years of history in the coreutils git repo has been invaluable for ongoing development. thanks, Pádraig.

Each intermediate release (e.g., bash-3.2-beta) for which I have a copy is a separate commit; the milestone releases I don't have are marked with tags to the appropriate weekly snapshot commit.

Anyone wanting to propose a patch would like to prepare it against the most recent state of the tree. And afterwards they are curious to see whether and how the patch made it into the repo.

Hello everybody. Just my 2 cents about this ...

Apart from that, having a proper, faithful and easily avaiable VCS history would surely help future (so far only hypotetical) maintainers or co-maintainers of Bash. I can say this from experience, since my work as (relatively recent) automake co-maintainer has been and continues to be greatly helped and by the well preserved and fairly complete history in its source repository (history that, BTW, has been successfully preserved in the transition from CVS to git).
