gbranden pushed a commit to branch master
in repository groff.

commit 80d0d4b6156cd3d31b72441fbd97c4997273b1e8
Author: G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
AuthorDate: Sun Oct 25 13:21:20 2020 +1100

    Fix miscellaneous wording errors.
    
    Including:
    
    * contrib/mom/om.tmac: This reverts part of
      0b72789fe2b3945a771312f3a238fd6f274099cf; as I noted in
      https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?51065, the existing wording was
      correct.  "Left in" is a phrasal verb, and "in case" an adverbial
      phrase introducing a subordinate clause.  I overlooked this spurious
      change, which was similar to one I did catch.
