  1. doc: Clarify the errhint example

  1. Clarify errhint in sources.sgml

    Daniel Gustafsson <daniel@yesql.se> — 2023-07-12T07:08:36Z

    It was noted in 20230712015948.byqaftt57glwknjz@awork3.anarazel.de that the
    errhint example in sources.sgml isn't as helpful as it could be.  errhint
    should use a complete sentence, but the example doesn't, so I propose the
    attached change which makes it so.  The style for hints is clearly spelled out
    further down on the page, but for anyone looking for a quick answer and not
    reading the whole page the current example might be misleading.

    Following from that discussion, the patch looks good to me.

    Thanks for review, I'll go make that happen then in a bit unless anyone else
    objects.
