I think the issue there is more that if someone sent a drive by patch to
some driver they'll start showing up in the git history and often get
CCed on future changes going forwards, which can then result in getting
copied into further postings done by copying from prior postings.  That
does feel somewhat tractable to education, at least in the early stages.
