Thanks, I've applied a slightly different one. (I don't often read about
"registering with the VCS". "check in" is the more common term. Also,
when you say "marked as ignorable (for example, by adding them to
@file{.cvsignore}" - are there other ways to mark a file as ignorable?).

It was OK. For documentation patches, unified diffs (like those that you sent)
are generally preferred over context diff.
