Upper case is what glibc has, though it appears that it's a rule that is

blind
eye to such minor non-conformance.

In that case can we simply say that both 'committed' and 'COMMITTED' are
okay,
if we know glibc doesn't follow that rule and anticipate we will not follow
it either?


And perhaps something shorter?  "committed" is a long word.  [PUSHED]?

"Committed" is the accepted term in glibc.  If we insist on something different, then that becomes a friction point.


"COMMITTED", not "Committed".

On the other hand, I really don't care personally as long as the meaning is clear.  I'd be happy with the super-set of all of these, since it only appears in email messages, not the final commit.
