Subject: [PATCH] versioncmp: fix typo in versioncmp.c, t/t0022-crlf-rename.sh
Message-ID: <20260828-typo-fix-v1-1-24e80a87ed53@gmail.com>

```
The patch fixes two typos in two places.
versoncmp.c:            "fractionnal" -> "fractional"
t/t0022-crlf-rename.sh: "similiarity" -> "similarity"

NFC only updating a comment and a test_description

The patch subject only mentions "versioncmp", so it's quite surprising
to see a change to t0022, as well. Maybe you should just split it up
into two patches, even though that feels somewhat heavyweight.

I have no idea what this means.

The typo-fixes look obviously good.

Thanks!

"No functional changes", I guess.  But spelling it out in the commit log
message would of course be preferable.
