From ea57f80c8c0e59cfc5095f7e856ce7c8e6ac2984 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dean Nelson Date: Tue, 29 Jul 2008 22:34:14 -0700 Subject: sgi-xp: eliminate '>>>' in comments Comments in /drivers/misc/sgi-xp has been using '>>>' as a means to draw attention to something that needs to be done or considered. To avoid colliding with git rejects, '>>>' will now be replaced by '!!!' to indicate something to do, and by '???' to indicate something to be considered.
