These patch sets have a lot of this sort of multiple commits in them. Could you use git rebase --interactive before generating the mailbox to squash some of these commits together when they're simple corrections to previous diffs rather than new work? I'll take care of compressing this one down. > As a bonus the attached mbox contains a patch implementing: > >> Tag: first-word-of-sentences-too-repetitive >> Severity: minor >> Certainty: wild-guess >> Info: The given word is used very often as the first word of a sentence. >> This makes the description hard to read because it is repetitive. >> . >> Consider rephrasing the description, using a more wide diversity of words. >> In case you have troubles with it an email to the english i18n mailing >> list should help. Hm, this one fails my "would I find this helpful or just annoying if it triggered on one of my packages" test. It feels very picky to me, even too picky for --pedantic, and getting into the area where automated analysis just isn't helpful compared to a native speaker reviewing the text. But this is a "soft" opinion -- I'm willing to be outvoted if other people don't agree with me. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
