Subject: [PATCH 1/3] Documentation: use allowlist and denylist
Date: Wed, 13 Jul 2022 13:20:48 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ec81aac05c40318755f5311a20e8f9cc55d289fc.1657718450.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.1274.git.1657718450.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

From: Derrick Stolee <derrickstolee@github.com>

Using "allowlist" and "denylist" is a more precise definition of the
functionality they provide. The previous color-based words assume
cultural interpretation to provide the meaning.

Focus on replacements in the Documentation/ directory since these are
not functional uses.
