Subject: [PATCH RESEND] git-svn: don't confuse editors with an apostrophe
Date: Fri, 29 Apr 2011 13:40:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1304077214-1707-1-git-send-email-cmn@elego.de> (raw)

The quotation mark serving as an apostrophe confuses editors and they
think a large part of the rest of the file is a string. Change
"you're" to "you are" to avoid this.

Signed-off-by: Carlos Martín Nieto <cmn@elego.de>
Acked-by: Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net>

I sent this on 31-03-2011 but apart from Eric's ack, there was no
reaction and I don't see it in the patch queue.
