Oh. Particularly when commit messages are good, history is quite
important. It can answer questions like "who did this?" (so you can
bug the right person with your questions), or "how did this work
before?" (e.g. if a regression was introduced, you can recover the
previous behaviour and study its code, not to mention that you can find
regressions more or less automatically with things like git bisect)
and many others.
