<p><code class="program">se modernize-spelling</code> would replace the dash in <code class="html">gold-thread</code> so that it reads <code class="html">goldthread</code>. Well <code class="html">goldthread</code> is an actual word, which is why it’s in our dictionary, and why the script makes a replacement—but it’s the name of a type of flower, <em>not</em> a golden fabric thread! In this case, <code class="program">se modernize-spelling</code> made an incorrect replacement, and we have to change it back.</p>
<p><code class="program">git</code> provides a handy way for us to visualize these differences:</p><code class="terminal"><span>git difftool</span></code>
<p>After you’ve reviewed the changes that the tool made, do another commit. This commit is important, because it gives purists an avenue to revert modernizing changes to the original text.</p>
<p>Note how we preface this commit with “[Editorial]”. Any change you make to the source text that can be considered a modernization or editorial change should be prefaced like this, so that the <code class="program">git</code> history can be easily searched by people looking to revert changes.</p><code class="terminal"><span>git add -A</span> <span>git commit -m "[Editorial] Modernize hyphenation and spelling"</span></code>
