From: Johannes Schindelin <redacted> Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <redacted> --- whats-cooking: fix a couple of typos I noticed a couple of typos while reading the most recent "What's cooking" mail.Thanks. https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?q=codepath,code%20path makes it clear that "code path" is how the phrase is typically written, but we have 233 instances of 'codepath' in our tree vs only 39 of 'code path', according to "git grep" X-<.
Right. Where coding style is concerned, I prefer to go by what I find in Git's source code, if only to avoid disrupting readers unnecessarily. However, when it comes to English grammar and customs, I am fully aware that many contributors aren't native speakers. Myself included. Therefore, I trust spell checkers more than our source code on those matters (except when it comes to those Git-isms like "submodule", "reftable", or "superproject"). If you feel strongly, please feel free to drop everything except the "submoudle" -> "submodule" fix. Ciao, Dscho
