Issue 161 in svnbook: [PATCH] Grammatical Error in Chapter 1 "none of them is." sb "none of them are."

[Richard Cavell]

I just want to mention that I brought this up on ##English on irc.freenode.net, and after much discussion we decided that either version is acceptable. But people can do whatever they like with it.

Try to avoid referring to "page numbers", as those are subject to change over time. If you need to, quote the book paragraph(s) that are incorrect, and recommend corrections. Grammatical error in paragraph: A Subversion client commits (that is, communicates the changes made to) any number of files and directories as a single atomic transaction. By atomic transaction, we mean simply this: either all of the changes are accepted into the repository, or none of them is. Subversion tries to retain this atomicity in the face of program crashes, system crashes, network problems, and other users' ac- tions. Should read: A Subversion client commits (that is, communicates the changes made to) any number of files and directories as a single atomic transaction. By atomic transaction, we mean simply this: either all of the changes are accepted into the repository, or none of them are. Subversion tries to retain this atomicity in the face of program crashes, system crashes, network problems, and other users' ac- tions. The changes we are discussing are plural. _______________________________________________ svnbook-dev mailing list svnbook-dev at red-bean.com http://www.red-bean.com/mailman/listinfo/svnbook-dev
