Also add a definite article where I think it makes sense. As we can see the rest of the document already prefers this term. This just gets rid of the last stragglers. Signed-off-by: Kristoffer Haugsbakk --- Notes (series): Commit message: “ “Trailer” is the preferred nomenclature in this project. Must surely be true since git-interpret-trailers(1) does not even contain the string “tag”. I did a grep in this directory: git grep tags ':(exclude)RelNotes' It didn’t look like there were any other mentions of “tags” in this sense. Of course it was difficult to look through. +CC: Josh Soref based on e.g. ac9fff2bf1c (SubmittingPatches: discourage new trailers, 2023-12-28) Documentation/SubmittingPatches | 6 +++--- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) base-commit: 34b6ce9b30747131b6e781ff718a45328aa887d0 diff --git a/Documentation/SubmittingPatches b/Documentation/SubmittingPatches index d8a8caa7916..db17bc7fe2c 100644 --- a/Documentation/SubmittingPatches +++ b/Documentation/SubmittingPatches @@ -412,13 +412,13 @@ Also notice that a real name is used in the `Signed-off-by` trailer.
