I feel that you missed the context by reading only the diff in the commit.
The full text in the manual after applying the patch reads like:
- {{{kbd(C-c C-x 0)}}} (~org-timer-start~) ::
#+kindex: C-c C-x 0
#+findex: org-timer-start
Start or reset the relative timer. By default, the timer is set
to 0. When called with a {{{kbd(C-u)}}} prefix, prompt the user for
a starting offset. The prompt will default to a timer string at
point (if any), providing a convenient way to restart taking notes
after a break in the process. When called with a double prefix
argument {{{kbd(C-u C-u)}}}, change all timer strings in the active
region by a certain amount. This can be used to fix timer strings
if the timer was not started at exactly the right moment.
