Repo-management software shouldn't be political #306

I love this tool - first time user. Bummed to see that I have to get political messages in git projects. I know it's not my project so you can obviously do whatever you want, but it sure would be cool to keep a corner of our lives free of politics since it's so divisive...afterall, open source requires many different kinds of people coming together to support something great, like this project! Division is easy. Unity is hard. I'll make a PR.

Especially given the guy who made the commit @rtyley lives in the UK, so he doesn't have a dog in the fight. Useless cruft in the code.
