If you have commit access:
* Do NOT use git push --force.
* Do NOT commit to other maintainer's packages without their consent.
* Use Pull Requests if you are unsure and to suggest changes to other maintainers.
Release Branches:
* Branches named "for-XX.YY" (e.g. for-14.07) are release branches.
* These branches are built with the respective OpenWrt release and are created
  during the release stabilisation phase.
* Please ONLY cherry-pick or commit security and bug-fixes to these branches.
* Do NOT add new packages and do NOT do major upgrades of packages here.
* If you are unsure if your change is suitable, please use a pull request.
