Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Documentation: tiny git config manual tweaks
Date: Sat, 9 Jan 2010 21:01:21 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100110030121.GD1083@progeny.tock> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100110025641.GB1083@progeny.tock>
As a verb, 'setup' is spelled 'set up'. “diff commands such as
diff-files” scans better without a comma. Clarify that shallow
and deep are special non-boolean values for format.thread rather
than boolean values with some other name.
