Totally unrelated to this patch but yesterday a coworker called the
Grammar Police on me because Git said "Deltifying objects" in their
console window during a fetch or push operation.  I told them it was
perfectly valid, they disagreed.  I got free coffee out of the deal.

But still, it bothers some users that we use perhaps less than
commonly accepted English in an important tool's output.  Seeing it
in your context just reminded me of that discussion yesterday.
