Re: [PATCH] Change 'Deltifying objects' to 'Delta compressing objects'

Boo. I _like_ "deltifying". Sure, it's probably not in the dictionary,
but that's how languages change: saying "delta compressing" all the time
will get awkward, so people invent a new word using existing rules to
explain a common phenomenon.

This is not very considerate to non-native speakers, though, who might
not grasp the neogolism.

Perhaps just "compressing" if it gets awkward.
