Change: * Sentences that needed "the" or "a" to either add those or change them so they don't need them. * The little tangent about "You can use this to do X (if your project wants to do X)" can just be shortened to "e.g. if you want to do X". * s/parameter/parameters/ when the plural made more sense. Most of this goes all the way back to the initial introduction of hooks.txt in v0.99.5-76-g6d35cc7 by Junio.
