An example is c35a7b8d806317dc1762e36561cbd31c2530dd9c in git archive Original text is: Skip merges in format-patch. After round trip: Skip merges in format-patch. git-format-patch-script | 3 ++- 1 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) c35a7b8d806317dc1762e36561cbd31c2530dd9c I know I'm a bit annoying ;-) Marco P.S: I say 'revision', and 'git archive' but are very common also 'commit' and 'git repository'. This is just a silly example where a common dictionary should be useful. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Which is very good. Thanks. Mind if I put it under Documentation/ in its current shape? ``` ## Johannes Schindelin, 2005-08-17 19:51 Subject: Re: git-format-patch + git-applymbox small issue Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/Pine.LNX.4.63.0508172149280.17234%40wgmdd8.biozentrum.uni-wuerzburg.de In-Reply-To: <7vpsscweou.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net> ``` Hi, On Wed, 17 Aug 2005, Junio C Hamano wrote: > Johannes Schindelin writes: > > > On Wed, 17 Aug 2005, Marco Costalba wrote: > > > >> P.S: I say 'revision', and 'git archive' but are very common also > >> 'commit' and 'git repository'.

Thanks. Mind if I put it under > Documentation/ in its current shape? I'd be honoured! Though I think that peu a peu, useful suggestions trickle in. But I can handle these as a patch, right?
