No, I don’t think you are and I don’t think I will. There are no
rules, there are people who are in and can do whatever they want
to do and anybody who dares to contribute for the first time is
needlessly harrassed. See this:

This is not being pedantic about anything. And all that in the
email-driven project, where changing the patch before applying
is absolutely no problem whatsoever. And all that harassment for
three character change.

This harassment and complete NIH-syndrom ruling everything (git
is the only project I have met so far, which didn’t settle on
the vaguely K&R style for shell scripting, but why not to pester
newbies with need to have specific settings in everything just
for this one project, right?) leads me to abandoning this and
couple of other attempts to contribute. Of course, accepting
conventional commits (the only real standard in commit messages I
know about) is beneath your station in life.

Have a nice day,

Matěj
