The muppets are the project managers or other responsible persons who
allow poorly written code to be committed.
On one occasion I revoked a developers commit access to the source repo
because he persistently committed poorly formatted or badly commented
code which I then had to try to sort out when packaging the stuff up for
release.
There's also a lovely little thing you can do with Subversion hooks when
you're dealing with Perl code: test the stuff at commit time. If the
submitted code produces errors when run against "perl -cw" or similar,
then the commit is rejected. Muahahaha. :)
