Subject: [PATCH v2] doc: bitbake-user-manual: grammar fix for the number of "metadata"
Date: Thu, 29 Jul 2021 15:13:11 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210729131311.164092-1-michael.opdenacker@bootlin.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <16964500F28F0291.7588@lists.openembedded.org>
"metadata" is used both as singular and as plural.
The first change fixes a case in which the verb has a singular conjugation
but absence of article indicates a plural case.
The second and third changes are for consistency with the first one inside
the same paragraph.
