Yes, that's what I had in mind. Still, completely deleting his account is
too harsh IMHO. Suspending his write permission, yes. Just until he fixes
the bad commit, admits he violated the rules and promises not to do that again.

I think many will agree with me that uau is a valuable contributor and
most of his work was quite welcome.

There should be a science of discontent. People need hard times and
oppression to develop psychic muscles.
