Thanks for pointing it out. I have a feeling that we see more submissions with this problem via GGG than other avenues, and I do not want to be the only one who is enforcing that rule. Very much appreciated. >> Part of these two recent commits >> >> 1. a066a90db6 (ci(check-whitespace): restrict to the intended commits, >> 2021-07-15) >> 2. cc00362125 (ci(check-whitespace): stop requiring a read/write token, >> 2021-07-15) >> >> are well written messages that reflect the changes (compare: [1]). The above may not be incorrect per-se, but other than the fact that what this patch fixes came from these two commits, I find it largely irrelevant. >> Unfortunately those commits left the description in top file comments >> unchanged which are still showing the previous picture. Earlier a066a90d (ci(check-whitespace): restrict to the intended commits, 2021-07-14) changed the check-whitespace task to stop using a shallow clone, and cc003621 (ci(check-whitespace): stop requiring a read/write token, 2021-07-14) changed the way how the errors the task discovered is signaled back to the user. They however forgot to update the comment that outlines what is done in the task. Correct them. would perhaps be sufficient? >> name: check-whitespace >> >> -# Get the repo with the commits(+1) in the series. >> +# Get the repo with all commits to steady catch the series. > > I am not a native English speaker, but "to steady catch" strikes me as not > quite English.

Sounds good (I am not native, either). >> # Process `git log --check` output to extract just the check errors. >> -# Add a comment to the pull request with the check errors. >> +# Give status 2 on check errors. > > Is it really interesting that the exit code 2 is used?

Or "exit with status 2 to signal white-space issues" if we really wanted to say "2" somewhere, but I do not think it is needed, because I do not offhand see other non-zero exits in the script.
