I had a commit bit long ago.  Gave it up due
to unneeded drama with other committers.

Moving to git is a hindrance to pursuing a
new commit bit.  My usage of git is fairly
limited to 'git pull', 'git diff', and
'git reset --hard'.  There is the occasional
'rm -rf /usr/src && git clone' when the tree
to too messed up to salvage.
