Oops, you are right. My bad!

Actually, now I read it again, I realise that I don't understand what this 
sentence means:

My first commit to a llvm repository was via github, and github doesn't 
discriminate. If you have write-access to the repo, then your push to `main` 
will surely go ahead. There are no automated emails involved as far as I know.

I suspect this prose is from pre-github, where the process was different?
