Sorry I should have explained myself better...

I "watch" systemd/systemd as a whole, so I get all notifications
without having to ask for them individually...

On #164, I *did* get an e-mail for @zonque's comment ("Also, you
forgot to add the new files to Makefile.am and po/LINGUAS...") but I
did *not* get e-mails for @poettering's comments on commit 5f33680
("Hmm, can you please change the commit msg to say this is the catalog
translation? ...") and the replies on that thread (@s8321414 replied
"@poettering How can I do this using git?" etc.)

I think that's one more symptom of the fact that, for GitHub, the
commit itself doesn't directly belong to the PR, and so does not
belong to the project either...

The e-mail notifications are not really a great big deal (still, they
are annoying), but I think it's just one more sign that adding
comments to the commits will end up causing trouble in the future...

Cheers,
Filipe
