Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] revisions.txt: change "rev" to "<rev>"
Date: Sat, 27 Apr 2019 05:15:58 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <e5b6d69eec80acab5b4b4c702011fc82a7367a79.1556367012.git.liu.denton@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1556367012.git.liu.denton@gmail.com>
In revisions.txt, there were some instances of a rev argument being
written as "rev". However, since they didn't mean the string literal,
write "<rev>", instead.
