That's actually an interesting question. It's a bit hard to do that, though, 
because there are no obvious search terms.

Searching for "refrain" turns up 6 commits in the 4 years of kde-commits 
history I have here (a bit more than 360000 commits), where a maintainer 
complained about code changes done by others without review (usually in the 
form of "please refrain from doing ...").

That's not particular frequent. So even when assuming that there are 50 more 
such queries giving different results, this is still in the order of magnitude 
of every thousandth commit. Call me non-paranoid, but I wouldn't bother with 
stuff which happens this rarely.
