Subject: [PATCH] Documentation/git-config.txt: reword missleading sentence
Date: Thu,  5 Oct 2017 10:17:33 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171005081733.18529-1-nathan.payre@etu.univ-lyon1.fr> (raw)

Change the word "bla" to "section.variable" to make it clear that it's a placeholder for a variable name.

See discussion at: https://public-inbox.org/git/20171002061303.Horde.SL92grZCqTRV9oQkBFPELQ7@crashcourse.ca/
