From: Wesley J. Landaker Date: Sat, 25 Apr 2009 15:13:41 GMT Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Documentation: git-clean: make description more readable Message-ID: <1240672421-10309-3-git-send-email-wjl@icecavern.net> In-Reply-To: <1240672421-10309-1-git-send-email-wjl@icecavern.net> The existing text is a little bit awkward. This rewrites the description section to be more readable and friendly. Signed-off-by: Wesley J. Landaker --- This is a more major change, but since at least I and one other person I know have both stumbled on this section, I think making it more readable and friendly is a good change.
