From c8c3f1d087f2195fd6ef61d6cca8241a808ac11a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Tan Date: Tue, 31 Mar 2015 21:39:27 +0800 Subject: enter_repo(): fix docs to match code In b3256eb (standardize and improve lookup rules for external local repos), enter_repo() was modified to use a different precedence ordering of suffixes for DWIM of the repository path, and to ensure that the repository path is actually valid instead of just testing for existence. However, the documentation was not modified to reflect these changes. Fix the documentation to match the code. Documentation contributed by Jeff King.
