[PATCH v6 3/8] branch: lowercase error messages

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

 



Documentation/CodingGuidelines says “do not end error messages with a
full stop” and “do not capitalize the first word”.  Reviewers requested
updating the existing messages to comply with these guidelines prior to
the following patches.
