I wonder, does it make sense to queue the commit (as 011/207) and immediately its revert (the patch below) in a single release? I doubt that...
The same holds for 012 (patch) + 015 (revert).
Yes it does, otherwise tools will pick up "hey, you forgot this patch that should have been applied here!" all the time. Having the patch, and the revert, in the tree prevents that from happening.
It'd be fairly easy to fix the tools not to pick up reverted commits, right?
Not really as they are usually quite "far" away from the original commits.
But hey, if you have some scripts that can find all of that, I'm all for it, the ones I have right now don't account for this.
