From 06f3fc2a4b097545259935d54634c5c6f49ed20f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Laager Date: Wed, 26 Dec 2018 15:50:14 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] Minor tweaks to zfs.8 man page for POSIX ACLs * Capitalize POSIX in POSIX ACLs. This change makes the POSIX in POSIX ACLs all caps, which is both correct and consistent with the rest of the man page. * Slightly reword part of zfs.8. I tweaked a sentence to add a missing comma, and as long as I was editing, removed a couple unnecessary words.
