RelNotes/2.50.0: fix typos & other improvements
• Replace with phrases that are more standard (“all-or-nothing” instead of “-none”) • Add coordinating words that make it less likely for you to trip over the sentence (“*that* "gc" can do”) • Use “SMTP” instead of both SMTP and smtp • Don’t mention `git fsck --reference` since the previous release was not affected by this minor bug. Also say “errored out” since the git-refs(1) bug was there in v2.48.0 as well • Use the more widespread “linked” instead of “secondary worktree” Signed-off-by: Kristoffer Haugsbakk <code@khaugsbakk.name> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
