I'm certainly interested. You can make it as a patch set, I have a private git repo where I can run "git am", which I then synchronize with the svn local copy, which can then be checked in svn.linuxfromscratch.org. I do all my development on the private git repo, creating and deleting branches as needed. So much easier than subversion... But of course, it works only for a lonely dev. I'm installing shellcheck... I'm certainly not easy with bash! I wish that a similar tool exist for the XSLT language, because I've learned it by myself, from the W3C doc, and I'm never sure I come to the right/best solution.
