Subject: [PATCH] config: fix short help of unset flags
Date: Mon, 24 Nov 2025 22:00:05 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <06997dce-e4d5-4889-8e70-5f44da3dc800@web.de> (raw)
The flags --all and --value of "git config unset" don't make the command
"replace" or "show" anything, they are about selecting what to unset.
Change their help text accordingly.
