That's just the beginning of good commit log messages.  The other
aspects are also required, and that's why they are described in
CONTRIBUTE.  We expect the contributors to follow those conventions,
and we point out any deviations from them as part of the patch review
process.

Likewise here: we request that contributors adhere to our conventions,
even if the automated tools didn't yet catch up.  That's why patch
review requires human participation, instead of being an automated
process: the tools are not yet powerful enough to make it completely
computerized.
