Not broad enough. Should also include "don't merge", "no need to merge",
etc. (Unless you think you can get Emacs developers to follow a
convention, which history suggests is unlikely.) This pattern needs to
err on the side of false positives rather than false negatives; and the
person using it needs to think whether to answer yes or no to each
"skip" question. (Nothing here has changed since the bzr days.)
