Dear sir or madam,
At:
https://git-scm.com/docs/git-commit#git-commit---long
you can read:
When doing a dry-run, give the output in a the long-format.
From my point of view it should read:
When doing a dry-run, give the output in the long-format.
Furthermore in the file:
./Documentation/gitremote-helpers.txt
you can read:
As the a push option
It should be changed to:
As the push option
Additionally in the file:
./ci/run-windows-build.sh
please change:
# Script to trigger the a Git for Windows build and test run.
to:
# Script to trigger the Git for Windows build and test run.
And in the file:
./diff.c
change:
* 1. collect a the minus/plus lines of a diff hunk, divided into
to:
* 1. collect the minus/plus lines of a diff hunk, divided into
Thanks a lot in advance for fixing these minor typos.

Thanks for spotting the errors!
Care to craft a patch and send it upstream yourself?
See https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/Documentation/SubmittingPatches
how to approach it.
TL;DR:
git clone https://github.com/git/git
# hack hack hack
git commit
git format-patch HEAD^
# use e.g. git send-email to send the patch to the mailing list
Thanks,
Stefan

To be honest I started to read the mentioned website, was intimidated and decided to sent an email.
Alright, what could possibly go wrong? I will do it.

Hi Stefan,
I submitted the patch to the mailing list.
Based on my experience I submitted another patch to improve the documentation.
Thank you for guiding me.
