From 52382feb782b76c42552e96f0bc382a87fd7c1e4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Rowley Date: Tue, 9 Dec 2025 14:41:30 +1300 Subject: [PATCH] Doc: fix typo in hash index documentation Plus a similar fix to the README. Backpatch as far back as the sgml issue exists. The README issue does exist in v14, but that seems unlikely to harm anyone.
