Ok for the tag, but notice that commits are sent to a separate list. I'm
also proposing to send [NMU] commits to the discussion list, in the same
spirit of the NMU notifications which get delivered to Maintainers of
NMU-ed packages.

It's nothing special: users can write to a file as if the had write
permissions. So we will see the user name of the commiter and we would
just need to compare it with the *nix group matching our project.

It's already as this. Discussion d-o-m, commits to
pkg-ocaml-commits@l.a.d.o or similar. The fact the mailing list is
called d-o-m is now not really standard wrt to other lists, but I don't
see the point of changing it at this point in our history.

Cheers.
