Such visible changes are usually reflected in the NEWS.  There could be
a post-commit hook or something which would send the notification when a
change in NEWS is being committed.  For me, such a thing would be very
useful (in addition, I almost never get to read the NEWS even after new
release, this way I won't need to).
