[PATCH] git-svn: clarify documentation of dcommit sub-command

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

 



Clarify that the optional "revision or branch" argument on dcommit sub-command refers to a
git branch not an SVN branch.

If the user's intent is to commit the current series of commits onto a specific SVN branch
rather than the trunk, the existing wording might lead them to believe that the optional
argument may be a means to achieve this.

The rewording clarifies that the optional argument actually refers to the source git
branch, not the target svn branch.
