Subject: [PATCH] Improve --assume-unchanged in the git update-index man page
Date: Fri, 5 Dec 2014 22:21:56 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1417818117-368-1-git-send-email-philipoakley@iee.org> (raw)
Hi Junio, this is my quick attempt at a patch for the man page.
In $gmane/260837 the --assume-unchanged flag was reported as buggy because
of a misunderstanding about what it is being promised.
This patch looks to be more assertive in stating what promise is being made.
While at it correct a confusing pluralisation of the option.
