Date: Wed, 19 Nov 2025 14:57:27 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251119065727.3500015-1-jiakaiPeanut@gmail.com> (raw)
This patch updates the Linux documentation for cscope, fixing two issues:
1. Corrects the typo in the command line:
c"scope -d -p10 -> cscope -d -p10
2. Fixes the related documentation comment for clarity and correctness:
cscope by default cscope.out database.
->
cscope by default uses the cscope.out database.
