Before then, the usage at the top said something like: git patch-id < and this "parameter" made sense. But after, we just talk about stdin in the text, and mentioning "" is simply confusing. I looked through the other documentation touched by 33e8fc874 to see if there were other cases of this same problem, but I think this is the only one. -Peff ```
