Git changed its 'official' system name from 'GIT' to 'Git' in v1.6.5.3 (as can be seen in the corresponding release note where 'GIT' was changed to 'Git' in the header line). Alas the documention uses 'GIT', 'Git' or even 'git' to refer to the Git system. So change every occurrence of 'GIT" and 'git' to 'Git' whenever Git as a system is referred to (but don't do this change in the release notes because they constitute a history orthogonal to the history versioned by Git). [PATCH 1/2] Change old system name 'GIT' to 'Git' [PATCH 2/2] Change 'git' to 'Git' whenever the whole system is referred toMy second patch somehow got lost in the mailing system (I suspect due to its size of >300kB). I will wait for some more comments and then do a reroll thereby splitting the second patch in smaller parts ...
For such big patches it also helps if you push them somewhere public, and post the URL and branch name, so that interested parties can still have a look. But yes, vger.kernel.org silently discards all mail above 100KB, see http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html in the last section. -- Thomas Rast trast@{inf,student}.ethz.ch
