Will fix in next iteration, assuming Junio and Eric are otherwise
happy with the update.
I don't have an opinion on the latter half of the patch that is primarily
about the rationale given by "the author", i.e. Eric ;-), but the
description of dcommit subcommand itself certainly looks simpler and more
readble to me.
Thanks.
