There is a matching '>' missing. The description is correct (I am
not sure if there actually is "preference", though), but I found the
title a bit misleading. With 'drop unneeded subshell', I would
imagine a patch like
(
- ( do something )
+ do something;
do something else;
)
It looks more like "reduce use of subshell by using 'git -C <dir>'"
to me.
