Subject: [PATCH 4/5] docs: add a new command boilerplate code
Date: Sat,  8 Mar 2014 11:01:56 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1394298117-16531-4-git-send-email-kerolasa@iki.fi> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1394298117-16531-1-git-send-email-kerolasa@iki.fi>

Having howtos is good, having an working code that can be used as-is to
kickstart a write of a new command is better.
