Can you explain under what situations you think this would be helpful?

The main challenge is that compilers don't generally have such
information (e.g. git repo + file commit/hash) available to them when
they build the object files, so it doesn't show up in DWARF, and
therefore it doesn't show up in packaged binaries.  Thus debuginfod
can't pass the info to clients or a version control system.
