Subject: (General output formatting): Reflect option name change:
X-Git-Tag: v4.5.5~192
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0ba481441fbac0365214217d80977f32f6df452a;p=thirdparty%2Fcoreutils.git

(General output formatting): Reflect option name change:
s/--dereference-command-line/--dereference-command-line-symlink-to-dir/.
Say that this option changes how ls treats only symlinks to directories
specified on the command line.
