Clarify a few items in the onboarding doc about landing a PR. One addition is to include the optionsl `Refs:` metadata.
| * Only include collaborators who have commented `LGTM` | ||
| * Amend the commit description. | ||
| * Commits should be of the form `subsystem[,subsystem]: small description\n\nbig description\n\n<metadata>` | ||
| * The first line should not exceed 50 characters. |

Maybe specify that the description should use the imperative mood.

I like it, but that gets a little trickier and starts leaking into other docs:
- Commit message formatting requirements are in
CONTRIBUTING.mdand belong there, IMO. This doc should just link to that section (except for metadata format, since that's Collaborator-specific). - The
CONTRIBUTING.mdshould include the imperative mood requirement. I don't think it does right now. So it will need to be updated too. - There may be some discussion around whether using the term
imperative moodwill be well-understood or is completely accurate. We may want to go with something more like "should start with a present-tense verb". Not sure but there seems to be a risk of bike-shedding.
For those reasons, if it's OK with you, I'd prefer to make the whole adjusting-the-requirements-for-the-commit-message thing be a separate pull request. (Feel free to open it yourself if you wish!)

I agree but in this case I would argue that the whole sentence ("The first line should not exceed 50 characters.") belongs to CONTRIBUTING.md.
That said, I'm totally fine with this as is, it's really nitpicking :)

Yes, I'll change human to collaborator name. Thanks!
