Good point.  I also notice the lack of body in the proposed commit
message.  It should say which part(s) of "coding guidelines" this
change wants to make the code adhere to (maybe later we might change
the guideline, and those who find this commit via "git blame" needs
to understand what exact rule this change was aiming to follow,
before they are confident that the change they plan to make is good).

Thanks for pointing out that it will help mentorship applicants to
learn from reviews the other applicants are receiving, as they tend
to make similar mistakes.
