[PATCH 0/3] Help newbie git developers avoid obvious pitfalls

I fell into various newbie pitfalls when submitting my first patches to git, despite my best attempts to adhere to documented guidelines. This small patch series attempts to reduce the chances of other developers making the same mistakes I did.

Adam Spiers (3):
  SubmittingPatches: add convention of prefixing commit messages
  Documentation: move support for old compilers to CodingGuidelines
  Makefile: use -Wdeclaration-after-statement if supported
