Why not?
Isn't this change being championed on behalf of users who find the
word offensive?
Why would it be offensive to see the word on the commands you type on
the command line, but not offensive if the documentation tells you to
type those commands? This does not compute.
And worse; for the rest of the users that don't find the word
offensive (99.9% of them?), the documentation is left in an
inconsistent state, where some commands would not work as they are
stated.
If a word is so offensive it has to be erased from the Git lexicon,
then it has to be erased *everywhere*, or at least everywhere a user
might look.
Cheers.
