IMO some of these look nicer when everything is lowercase. e.g. "standard git committer ident format". > diff --git a/Documentation/gitweb.txt b/Documentation/gitweb.txt > index 168e8bf..d364c3a 100644 > --- a/Documentation/gitweb.txt > +++ b/Documentation/gitweb.txt > @@ -504,7 +504,7 @@ repositories, you can configure Apache like this: > > The above configuration expects your public repositories to live under > '/pub/git' and will serve them as `http://git.domain.org/dir-under-pub-git`, > -both as cloneable GIT URL and as browseable gitweb interface.

IMO it reads nicer as "cloneable git URL", which also avoids this mismatch, but like I said that's my opinion. $ git grep 'git repositor' | wc -l 226 These changes touch, for example, git-clone.txt to make it say: "Make a 'bare' Git repository". Why not lowercase? In that same file it has "git repository", in lowercase, in a later paragraph. I'm not sure which way is preferred, but I think they should be consistent. Anyways, just some small notes. cheers, -- David
