Reading this I see two big chunks: lots of minor template/JS tweaks
and an import of some PouchDB sources. The PouchDB is almost exactly
50% of the lines added. Russel could have probably organized his
commits a bit better to indicate that but given our relatively lax
attitude to maintaining a clean history I can't really ding him on it.

I understand that its good to be sure and clear things that need it,
but I don't think the level of work here rises to that standard.

OTOH, I think this is pointing out that we still haven't fully groked
how to deal with GitHub PRs at the ASF. In a perfect world I'd turn
them off and force everyone to submit code via mailing list. Granted
that's probably a super minority position but I think we could use
some more concrete project specific guidelines on contributions via
PR.
