I know it is but it's how b4 thankyou mails appear.

The list comes from the original series that b4 caches somewhere.
I deleted the patches 1-10 and only applied mbox that contained patches 
11-13.

When constructing thankyou mail, b4 seems to take the cached list of 
patches the series had and does not find 1-10 applied into my tree by me 
so it says (no commit info). The rest appear as expected:

Of course it would be much less confusing if it never showed those no 
commit info entries at all but unfortunately I don't think I can control 
that, sorry.
