[PATCH v7 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”.  Clean up existing
messages, some of which we will be touching in later steps in the
series, that deviate from these rules in this file, as a preparation for
the main part of the topic.
