Subject: [PATCH 1/2] doc/git-repack: fix syntax for `-g` shorthand option
Date: Mon, 16 Oct 2023 09:19:51 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bee3cfbe359c62cfeb9803917d661fbba54e404b.1697440686.git.ps@pks.im> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1697440686.git.ps@pks.im>

The `-g` switch is a shorthand for `--geometric=` and allows the user to
specify the geometric. The documentation is wrong though and indicates
that the syntax for the shorthand is `-g=<factor>`. In fact though, the
option must be specified without the equals sign via `-g<factor>`.

Fix the syntax accordingly.
