Subject: [PATCH] format-patch: Update the `-3` example
Date: Sat, 21 Aug 2010 14:56:59 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1282382819-25097-1-git-send-email-artagnon@gmail.com> (raw)

In the EXAMPLES section, `git-format-patch -3` doesn't work
anymore. Update it to read `git format-patch HEAD~3`. The example was
introduced in 7c49628 and had not been updated since.
