From: Elijah Newren Date: Thu, 16 Apr 2026 23:36:26 +0000 (+0000) Subject: RelNotes/2.54.0: fix typos and grammar X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=96a659da8a211a2eb8246f225db3c50a15017e68;p=thirdparty%2Fgit.git RelNotes/2.54.0: fix typos and grammar Fix various issues in the release notes -- missing/wrong articles, typo, indentation, quote consistency, and wording improvement or corrections. Other than the indentation fix for "The way combined list-object filter options...", this patch is much easier to view with --color-words.
