   Minor text edits for clarity. I note that the final email template talks about SVN but not about Git. Since 90% + of projects now use Git, additional text would be helpful.

   Thank you @cottage14 for your work.
   As the merge branch, `cottage14:patch-26` for this PR is from a different repository and edits from maintainers were not allowed, I was not able to make updates suggested by @clr-apache.
    
   Thus I incorporated these changes at #62 and made the suggested changes from Craig, thank you @clr-apache for your inputs.

   Hi @rbowen, I will suggest waiting for #62 to be merged. I think, after that this PR will be marked as merged automatically.
   At least this similar thing has happened for #61 and #25.
   If this PR is not marked as merged after merging #62, then I will close this PR.
