From: Adam Brengesjö Date: Fri, 19 Jul 2013 07:16:10 GMT Subject: Documentation/git-checkout.txt: Inconsistent naming of paths arguments Message-ID: From SYNOPSIS: git checkout [-p|--patch] [] [--] […] From DESCRIPTION git checkout [-p|--patch] [] [--] … 1. Named in SYNOPSIS, but in DESCRIPTION. (It's referred to as in the body text). 2. is marked as optional in SYNOPSIS, but is not. I'm not submitting a patch now, as I'm not sure which is correct.
