From 4562e4d6f28acf472d907734849610ec0463b3ea Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: AHMAD FAIZ <40581230+anodo123@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Sun, 28 Jul 2024 18:14:06 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] Clarify error description in cloning instructions This clarifies the error description in the 'Cloning the repository' section of the README. The current wording mentions 'an error about a bad commit', which is somewhat vague. I've updated it to 'an error about a bad commit timestamp', which more accurately describes the nature of the error referenced in issue #2690. This small change improves the clarity of the documentation, helping users better understand the potential issue they might encounter when cloning the repository and why they need to use the specified Git flag. --- README.md | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index 79cf54d1e1..18d9723c7d 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -60,7 +60,7 @@ Requests is ready for the demands of building robust and reliable HTTP–speakin ## Cloning the repository When cloning the Requests repository, you may need to add the `-c -fetch.fsck.badTimezone=ignore` flag to avoid an error about a bad commit (see +fetch.fsck.badTimezone=ignore` flag to avoid an error about a bad commit timestamp (see [this issue](https://github.com/psf/requests/issues/2690) for more background): ```shell
