[PATCH v2] commit-template: change a message to be more intuitive

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

 



It's not good to use the phrase 'do not touch' to convey the information
that the cut-line should not be modified or removed as it could possibly
be mis-interpreted by a person who doesn't know that the word 'touch' has
the meaning of 'tamper with'. Further, it could make translations a little
difficult as it might not have the intended meaning in a few languages when
translated as such.

So, use more intuitive terms in the sentence.
