New description:

 Currently, it is easy to submit a patch for code changes without first
 running integration tests locally.

 Two changes could help with this:
 1. Adding this information to documentation for contributors
 2. Adding a make task that runs all necessary tasks before contributing
 new code, which are:

 `make check-spaces`
 `make check`
 `make test-network-all`

 We should investigate how to handle:
 - Someone not having have chutney
 - Someone not having the necessary network connection for integration
 tests to succeed
 - If chutney tests fail because of flakiness (race conditions for example)
 rather than legitimate failures.
