The webkit-changes mailing lists was very useful in a number of scenarios. The same things can be achieved in other ways with git, but less efficiently or elegantly.

- look at changes as they are being landed;
- search for changes by keyword using mail client;
- efficiently step through changes in an identified regression or progression range.

Having SVN revisions and location of changes in titles was particularly useful. E.g. "[295779] trunk/Source/WebCore/accessibility" was the last of those. With GitHub not showing identifiers prominently, email archive could be part of the solution (although we should also have a history view on commits.webkit.org).
