Subject: Add help.autocorrect to enable/disable autocorrecting
X-Git-Tag: v1.6.1-rc1~263^2
X-Git-Url: https://asedeno.scripts.mit.edu/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f0e90716d47b429284702b75425a247c9fc41adb;p=git.git

Add help.autocorrect to enable/disable autocorrecting

It is off(0) by default, to avoid scaring people unless they asked to.
If set to a non-0 value, wait for that amount of deciseconds before
running the corrected command.

Suggested by Junio, so he has a chance to hit Ctrl-C.
