+1 I completely understand and I think we should have a code reviewing
process for branch merges or feature merges at least.
For folks who think it can slow us down, think what dcahill suggests.
Committers can still go ahead and commit into the branches, but at
least they will know something like gerrit or any other code reviewing
platform exists.
