Hi I guess it was an intentional choice to not use an “area” in the commit message? I found this similar patch which used `*` as the area: abcb66c614c (*: fix typos which duplicate a word, 2021-06-11); review here: https://lore.kernel.org/git/CAPig+cTjjNrU9q8UPm+CRuTKq8_XNc+1z7-3F4bvetBi+NjKeQ@mail.gmail.com/ On Sat, Oct 19, 2024, at 12:37, Sven Strickroth wrote: > Used regex to find these typos: "(?<!struct )(?<=\s)([a-z]{1,}) \1(?=\s)" This would be more conventional: Used regex to find these typos: (?<!struct )(?<=\s)([a-z]{1,}) \1(?=\s) Either that or code fence (MarkDown style). > > Signed-off-by: Sven Strickroth <email@cs-ware.de> I can confirm that this patch only does that.

Good. There are also no grammatically correct “that that” constructs that have been removed. > Documentation/RelNotes/2.45.0.txt I was wondering if typo fixes are done for released-released versions (not going through RC). But the aforementioned patch abcb66c614c does fix a release note or two for some old versions.

We also do this in Git, even though I should probably say that all patches that do have that prefix are from myself :P In any case, I don't have a strong opinion here. Patrick

(For what it's worth, I have occasionally used '*:' in the past, but I don't think it matters so long as we use something to avoid 99.9% of commits being prefixed with an area and having a few odd ones stuck out). Thanks, Taylor
