From 953049eed81b5da8602da97717fa225ab5bc1287 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Timur Sultanaev Date: Sat, 5 Jul 2025 17:39:18 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] docs: correct ORIG_HEAD example in "git merge" documentation Documentation for git-merge incorrectly notes that tip of the current branch on ascii diagram is C, while it is actually G (current branch is master, HEAD on diagram is G). Additionally diagrams on the page are adjusted to use spaces instead of tabs, so that they align regardless of tab size. This is in line with diagrams on other git documentation pages.
