The section `Committing Patches` contains an example commit subject line
that violates rule seven of the linked guide to writing commit
logs (Chris Beams famous blog post).
We should practice what we preach, especially in examples :)

7ba962276e doc: Minor grammatical changes and flow improvements (Travin Keith)
Pull request description:
**Grammar:**
Line 49: There shouldn't be a period at the end of a phrase.
Lines 56, 57, 116, 137, and 177: Adding necessary commas
Lines 103 and 136: Run-on sentence issues fixed.
Line 176: Fixed punctuation and added necessary conjunction
Line 178: Singular noun when it should be plural
**Flow:**
Line 49: Adding "for" makes it more natural.
Line 54: Though it's not grammatically incorrect to end a sentence with a preposition in an informal document such as this, the word "followed" is much easier to understand anyway, especially for those who don't have English as their native language.
Top commit has no ACKs.

As a first time git developer, I struggled to understand whether to create a new fork for each pull request or not.
After asking the IRC chat, I have added this to the documentation to further help new developers using git.
