Yes, this is a simple mistranslation from Perl to C.  A patch

On a similar vein, how about this?

I always end up editing the revert sentence by hand to make grammatical 
sense.

I think we always talk about "commit xyz".

We never talk about "xyz commit", except when we end up talking about a 
commit as a branch head (notably, I would say "the HEAD commit", or 
possibly "the top-of-master commit", but here $commit is a SHA1 name, not 
anything else).

Hmm?
