The patch fixes two typos in two places. versoncmp.c: "fractionnal" -> "fractional" t/t0022-crlf-rename.sh: "similiarity" -> "similarity"

The patch subject only mentions "versioncmp", so it's quite surprising to see a change to t0022, as well. Maybe you should just split it up into two patches, even though that feels somewhat heavyweight.

"No functional changes", I guess. But spelling it out in the commit log message would of course be preferable.
