From: Ori Avtalion <ori@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 7 Aug 2009 17:24:21 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] Change mentions of "git programs" to "git commands" Most of the docs and printouts refer to "commands" when discussing what the end users call via the "git" top-level program. We should refer them as "git programs" when we discuss the fact that the commands are implemented as separate programs, but in other contexts, it is better to use the term "git commands" consistently. Signed-off-by: Ori Avtalion <ori@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Nanako Shiraishi <nanako3@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- Junio, it appeard to me that you had some minor issues with Ori's patch but you knew exactly how they should be addressed and you thought it was a good change overall. I copy-edited Ori's patch for your convenience, and tried to clarify the criteria you used to decide which "program" should become "command" in the updated commit log message, in case you forgot to apply it yourself. I just didn't want to see the time you and others spent on submitting and reviewing wasted due to lack of resubmission of a revised patch.
