Spelling Mistake
The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:
Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/14/tutorial-sql-intro.html
Description:
Hello,
I was going through the docs, and on page:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/tutorial-sql-intro.html
the first code block is as shown:
$ cd .../src/tutorial
$ make
There are 3 periods instead of 2 which I believe is incorrect.
Hope this is helpful and thanks for all your work!
Kind regards,
James

It seems to me that those three periods refer to the root path of the
source tree that you'd need to type by yourself to reach it.

Also, as mentioned in the conventions
<https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/notation.html>
"The following conventions are used in the synopsis of a command: brackets (
[ and ]) indicate optional parts. Braces ({ and }) and vertical lines (|)
indicate that you must choose one alternative. Dots (...) mean that the
preceding element can be repeated. All other symbols, including
parentheses, should be taken literally."
