I've merged them all (some of them with small tweaks). - Use .I instead of \fI in new additions. - Use sentence case in commit message subject line. - Specify filenames as commit message prefixes. - The agreed POSIX version changes. And maybe some other that I forgot about. It'll be on the contrib branch here for around a day: <https://www.alejandro-colomar.es/src/alx/linux/man-pages/man-pages.git/log/?h=contrib> and then I'll push it to <kernel.org>. Have a lovely night! Alex -- <https://www.alejandro-colomar.es/>
