This series makes some small improvements to the docs for git-interpret-trailers. The intent is to make it easier to read for beginners who have never used this command before. Changes from v2 to v3 ===================== * Rebased on top of "master" at fe86abd751 (Git 2.41, 2023-06-01). The only conflict was in Patch v2 4/9 (https://lore.kernel.org/git/783a0b1e00309e9bcf13494908d99317df72f0d6.1683839975.git.gitgitgadget@xxxxxxxxx/), because cbb83daeaf (doc: interpret-trailers: fix example, 2023-05-01) added the "subject/message" style for the examples that did not have any message text in them. These examples' additional message lines have been replaced with Lorem ipsum... like the others in Patch v2 4/9. Changes from v1 to v2 ===================== In order of significance: * The phrase "commit message part" has been removed. * The word "message" is always used as part of the bigger phrase "commit message". * Deprecation language for trailer.<token>.command has been updated to minimize whitespace churn, while also tweaking the 2nd paragraph to reduce duplication. * The phrase "Lorem ipsum..." is always only used to stand in for the body paragraph(s) of a commit message. * Grammar fixes have been squashed together (01+06 previously).
