+For more details about the <pathspec> syntax, see the 'pathspec' entry +in linkgit:gitglossary[7].What you added in [PATCH 3/6] (git reset doc) sends a slightly different message, i.e. The <pathspec> is used to limit the paths affected by the operation (see the entry for 'pathspec' in linkgit:gitglossary[7] for more details). and I think that was more appropriate than what we see here. You are referring your readers to the glossary entry not just for the syntax but also the entire concept of <pathspec>. IOW, it would be needed to drop "syntax" from "about the <pathspec> syntax" from here to match the update to "git reset" documentation.
I shortened it even more in V3, I think it's better now?
