Knowing the rules are not enough. You must at least try to follow them
as well.
 
[...]
 
| 1) Only commit release quality stuff: It should compile, run, the code
| should be maintainable, high quality, useful and portable.
| 
| 2) Write concise and short patch summaries.
| 
| 3) Commit early and often. When doing a sprint, commit each logical,
| working change rather than one big commit at the end.
| 
| 4) State when you have time to work on any issues that might appear.
| If you know you wont have time in the near future to address issues,
| send a patch to the list instead of committing directly.
| 
| If in doubt, send a patch instead.

Which is of course essentially how we have tried to do things for
quite some time.
