Message-ID: <20161209155112.2112-2-kristoffer.haugsbakk@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20161209155112.2112-1-kristoffer.haugsbakk@gmail.com>

Add definite and indefinite articles in three places where they were
missing.

- Use "the" in front of a directory name
- Use "the" in front of "style of cooperation"
- Use an indefinite article in front of "CVS background"
