[beware: newbie posting]
<https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo>
contains a line describing gnucash-patches list:
gnucash-patches Patches for gnucash (makepatch format)

messages from the git repository
Could someone change this, perhaps to:
gnucash-patches commit messages from GNUCash git repository (read-only)
