I noticed some errors in one paragraph of the documentation for the <branch> argument of git-checkout. A convenient link to that documentation: https://git-scm.com/docs/git-checkout#git-checkout-ltbranchgt This is the current AsciiDoc source for that paragraph: You can use the `"@{-N}"` syntax to refer to the N-th last branch/commit checked out using "git checkout" operation. You may also specify `-` which is synonymous to `"@{-1}`. That source comes from Documentation/git-checkout.txt: https://github.com/git/git/blob/77556354bb7ac50450e3b28999e3576969869068/Documentation/git-checkout.txt#L290-L292 I suggest changing that source to this: You can use the `"@{-<n>}"` syntax to refer to the <n>th last branch/commit checked out using the "git checkout" operation. You may also specify `"-"`, which is synonymous to `"@{-1}"`. These are the changes: - Added the missing closing double quote to `"@{-1}` at the end. - Added the word “the” before ‘"git checkout” operation’. - Added quotes around “-”, to make it more visible and consistent with the other syntax in the paragraph. - Added comma before “which”. - For consistency, used the angle bracket style of placeholder also used by the explanation of the “@{-<n>}, e.g. @{-1}” syntax (see link) within the documentation for gitrevisions (see link).
