Edit: Thanks for your kind comments on disabling contributions. I'm aware of the possibility, this is just a meme.
Contributions in open source projects are great, needed and make the world a better place after all. Therefore they should be declined politely, optionally by giving a reason.
I hereby inform you that I will no longer accept contributions to this post /s.
Just merge them into a separate branch. You can have your cake and eat it
git branch -a
