This is all part of the existing documentation, so I don't think
this is really needed.


Yes it is documented, but developers usually refer the commits doing the similar thing while doing these kind of conversions. For them, this text serves as a
quick documentation.

If they can't be bothered to read the documentation, why would they
consider reading unrelated commits?


So I prefer to keep it in the commit message.

I still think this is pointless.
