- "git commit --amend" let the user edit the log message and then
died when the human-readable committer name was given
insufficiently by getpwent(3).

+ - When "git push" triggered the automatic gc on the receiving end, a
+ message from "git prune" that said it was removing cruft leaked to

+ - When the user gives an argument that can be taken as both a

+ used to give a help message "Use '--' to separate". The message
+ has been clarified to show where that '--' goes on the command
+ line.
