Subject: [PATCH] git.txt: list index versions in plain English
Date: Tue, 24 Mar 2015 07:28:33 +0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1427156913-4491-1-git-send-email-pclouds@gmail.com> (raw)

At the first look, a user may think the default version is "23". Even
with UNIX background, there's no reference anywhere close that may
indicate this is glob or regex.
