I do ignore it from time to time, yes. Being a stickler to the
guidelines wastes everybody's time (just like this discussion).
That said, the tense used in this patch is perfectly in-line with the
guideline you reference. "Add Star64 board devicetree" is in the
imperative and the commit message body contains additional information
about the board's configuration.
