Great work!

One minor issue, though: Please mention the license and reference
the actual URL of the wiki page in the commit message for proper
attribution under CC-BY-SA-3.0. For example, like this:

   This section is derived from the "Commit message format"
   subsection of the "Gentoo git workflow" wiki page
   <https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Gentoo_git_workflow>, which is
   released under the CC-BY-SA-3.0 license.

Also, don't say "content" [1].

I guess we'll finally have to bump the license of the devmanual from
CC-BY-SA-2.0 to 3.0 before including this. There's already a bug open
for that (#558732).
