So just in case, let's agree to disagree & keep the patches coming!

As a conclusion, what about to combine Miklos' check for the missing
documentation with a commit hook, so that it does not allow you to
commit _new_ files without (at least the high level) documentation? ;-)

I'm actually NOT in favor of this.  As much as I believe in providing
good code documentation for new code, this is a bit too far.

My rationale: Many times when I work on feature branches, I commit stuff
but intentionally not provide documentation because the role of the
class/method/whatever may change during the course of the
implementation.  This requirement would break my workflow, and I
wouldn't appreciate that.

Encouraging good documentation is a must, but making it a requirement
even for new files unconditionally is bad.
