[PATCH] Documentation/fast-import: put explanation of M 040000 <dataref> "" in context

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Omit needless words ("Additionally ... <path> may also" is redundant).
While at it, place the explanation of this special case after the
general rules for paths to provide the reader with some context.
