Hi Chandra,

Thank you for pointing that out. You’re absolutely right — the subject
line should use “tree-walk.h:” instead of “doc:” since the change is
in the header file and not in Documentation.

Would you prefer that I resend the patch with the corrected subject prefix?

Thanks again for the review and guidance.

Best regards,
Ayush
