Running
$ git grep -i -e 'instruction [ls]' -e 'todo l'
lets us count how we call them, and we can see there is only one
instance of 'instruction list'.
Running the above in v1.7.3 tree shows that it was originally called
'todo list', and we can see that an enhancement of cherry-pick in
cd4093b6 ("Merge branch 'rr/revert-cherry-pick-continue'",
2011-10-05)) started calling this instruction sheet around v1.7.8.
A follow-on patch to unify all three would be nice, indeed.
Thanks.
