Looking at git log --stat it would appear that I did not realize changes
to be in both files.  However, in order to avoid unexpected changes
(even if just in whitespace etc),
Yes, what makelsr does to the same snippets in snippets/ only is the
same I did in my patch, except it also adds a newline.

one should always just do the changes
in snippets/new manually and then commit the makelsr run separately.
Understood.

Running makelsr after my changes on snippets/new changes version to 3
unrelated snippets.
Then there were changes in snippets/new that would have warranted a
makelsr run previously.

If one does not want intermingling changes, it's possible to split the
work into three commits:

Run makelsr, do manual changes to snippets/new, run makelsr.

I think perhaps the CG needs some clarification or at least some more detail on this whole process. It is there but I think if you don't do it often or are new to the process it can seem confusing (for example do you makelsr.py before you submit a patch for testing? or after? and like here, what is best when you push etc. I always forget :) and have to remind myself). Not that I need it explained, we just need it documented 'better' perhaps.

I've been meaning to update the 'how to add/modify/delete snippets' section so it is clearer for those that are familiar with the process already. I'll try and sit down this weekend and come up with something.
