From: René Scharfe Date: Sun, 05 Oct 2025 15:55:10 GMT Subject: [PATCH v2 1/5] add-patch: improve help for options j, J, k, and K Message-ID: <75b08ed6-4f0f-4ede-b84a-c2f1c3d15734@web.de> In-Reply-To: <17ef29a7-5214-4729-82eb-92a2af33e465@web.de> The options j, J, k, and K don't affect the status of the current hunk. They just go to a different one. This is true whether the current hunk is undecided or not. Avoid misunderstanding by no longer mentioning the current hunk explicitly in their help texts.
