Also Jeff provided such an example in the commit\nmessage of 4e10738.\n\nIf you think it's unnecessary, then just remove that hunk.\n\n> The patch to Documentation/config.txt looks Ok, but I do not think you\n> need to say \"allows to set your preference\". \"Sets your preference\"\n> would\n> be enough.\n\nFixed. I also noticed that above the documentation uses \"Specify\" and\nnot \"Specifies\" in such a case, so I dropped the \"s\" here as well.\n\n Documentation/config.txt | 5 +++++\n Documentation/git-config.txt | 6 ++++++\n 2 files changed, 11 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)\n\ndiff --git a/Documentation/config.txt b/Documentation/config.txt\nindex b8ec01c..dc70ba6 100644\n--- a/Documentation/config.txt\n+++ b/Documentation/config.txt\n@@ -978,6 +978,11 @@ pack.packSizeLimit::\n \tcan be overridden by the `\\--max-pack-size` option of\n \tlinkgit:git-repack[1].\n \n+pager.::\n+\tSet your pager preference for each command, overriding the default.
