It does two things:  It lets reviewers and packagers refer to a specific
revision like 'I thought I fixed the %prep issue in 1.0-3'

It shows that you know what you know what to do when updating the release. 
We've had people that bumped epoch with every new build or people who updated
the release numbers in a way that went backwards instead of forwards so it's
good to check this.

Sounds good.

<nod>  Getting everybody to work on something together will help everyone in
the long run.  In certain development communities *cough*java*cough* we've seen
projects fork dead code and then, because the code is useful to more than one
project, each project has its own fork which diverges in small, subtle ways
from all the others.  This makes for a maintenance nightmare.

Ah excellent!  You can just copy the man page from Debian then.
