From: Johannes Sixt <j6t@xxxxxxxx>
If a given command is not found, then help.c tries to guess which one the
user could have meant. If help.autocorrect is 0 or unset, then a list of
suggestions is given as long as the dissimilarity between the given command
and the candidates is not excessively high. But if help.autocorrect was
non-zero (i.e., a delay after which the command is run automatically), the
latter restriction on dissimilarity was not obeyed.
In my case, this happened:
$ git ..daab02
WARNING: You called a Git command named '..daab02', which does not exist.
Continuing under the assumption that you meant 'read-tree'
in 4.0 seconds automatically...
The similarity limit that this patch introduces is already used a few lines
later where the list of suggested commands is printed.
