A previous change replaced "these advices" with "this advice", but that
wording can be read too narrowly and may seem to refer only to a single
recommendation.

Use "all of this advice" instead to make it clearer that the sentence
refers to the broader set of recommendations in the paragraph.

You mean the one you sent earlier we discussed? But that was not
applied, unless I'm missing something. So this should have been a v2 of
your patch (which a changelog) and against the same base (the one that
"these advices"). You want to send that as v3 now.

"Advice" is an uncountable noun, so "these advices" is grammatically
incorrect.

Replace it with "all of this advice" instead, which keeps the sentence
grammatical while also making it clear that it refers to the full set of
recommendations in the paragraph.

v3:
- resend against the original base as requested
- replace "these advices" directly with "all of this advice"

v2:
- use "all of this advice" based on review feedback

It is good to include the changes with each version, but it should go
below the "---" line so that the maintainer doesn't have to edit it out
at apply time.

Also, please send new versions as a separate thread rather than as a
response to a previous posting.

Thanks,
