I don't see what using another versioning system would change.

The problem here is that people should always check whether things
work fine before committing. If you are tired (e.g. late in the evening)
and are not sure about what you are doing anymore, then please just take
some rest and commit the next morning. Commits are a matter of discipline,
whatever you use as a versioning system. I expect thorough testing if you
want to commit yourself. If you are not sure, then you should send a patch.
