Comment (by eschnett):
It allows testing the patch before it is committed. That is, I can apply the patch and e.g. test it on a strange machine or strange architecture.
Of course, in reality I trust the patch author, will only read the patch, comment on the general approach taken to address a particular problem, and if there is indeed a problem it will be picked up after it has been applied. In most cases this will be fine.
