The original line is "<TAB><SPACE>Git", she changed to 9 <SPACE>
to match with other lines.
I guess she set tabstop=4, this paragraph will be mis-aligned on that.

Alba, if you gonna change the above <TAB> to 8 <SPACE> above, you may
want to change here, too.
This paragraph was written with tabstop=4 in mind.
And it's in the context of below hunk.

I'm not sure if changing <TAB> to 8 <SPACE> was expected in this
file because <TAB> and <SPACE> is also mixed in "Pack file entry"
section.
