Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] Small updates to SubmittingPatches
Date: Tue,  2 Jun 2026 23:43:02 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260602144304.3341000-1-gitster@pobox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260602090808.87837-1-gitster@pobox.com>

Recently I gave some advice on how a cover letter should
try to sell the idea to widest possible audience, and then
I realized that we do not seem to teach how in our guides.

Here is a small series to do so.

In this round, a few typos have been corrected, and improvements are
made thanks to help from Christian, Stolee, and Patrick.

 1/2: SubmittingPatches: separate typofixes section
 2/2: SubmittingPatches: describe cover letter
