[issue11868] Minor word-choice improvement in devguide lifecycle of a patch opening paragraph

2011-04-18 Thread Carl Meyer 

New submission from Carl Meyer c...@dirtcircle.com:

The opening paragraph of the lifecycle of a patch devguide page contains a 
confusing parenthetical aside implying that an svn-like workflow would mean 
never *saving* anything to your working copy and using hg diff to generate a 
patch. This is obviously wrong given the usual meaning of save: if you never 
save anything to your working copy, hg diff will be empty.

Patch attached with proposed alternative wording.
