[PATCH] Fixed some grammatical errors in git-rebase.txt documentation.

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

 



Generally, the dependent clause "for example" is suffixed with a comma.
Used present tense where appropriate to be consistent with the other
paragraphs.

Rewrote the paragraph in the second hunk to be more clear.
