A little fairy once whispered in my ear that if I stopped myself and tried to rephrase whenever I found myself using the work "just", I would meet less friction in context-stripping communication mediums such as email. They weren't wrong. > Checking in typos creates more review work, makes the code history have typo > fix patches that could be avoided, and impacts accessibility. > > I spend far more time with edk2 overhead such as email formatting problems, > keeping track of maintainer email address changes when updating patches, > mapping email replies back to code, and so on that does not improve the > code. A spell checker only takes seconds and is built into edk2 CI. We didn't disable the spellchecker for the ARM* packages (only) because we hate correct spelling. We disabled it because it throws false positives left right and centre. So we end up needing to update the .ci.yaml every time we mention an architectural concept we haven't mentioned before. Or add a copyright line mentioning a new organisation. Or correctly use apostrophes in ways the spellchecker doesn't expect. Here is the current (and very incomplete, oh - and package specific) exception list for ArmPkg: https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/master/ArmPkg/ArmPkg.ci.yaml#L95 If it had a aggressiveness knob and we could turn it down from 11 to 3 and work our way up from there, that would be another story. Failing that, a push-through-anyway-this-isn't-a-typo label would be a reasonable compromise. But for now, I agree with Ard. / Leif > On 12/14/2022 6:24 PM, Ard Biesheuvel wrote: > > On Thu, 15 Dec 2022 at 00:21, Michael Kubacki > > <mikub...@linux.microsoft.com> wrote: > > > > > > Yes.
