Minor correction to documentation

[LeahPrice]

Correcting the description of GetParticleWeight().

Nitwick: when one has two entries with the same data and author one tends to merge those.

But thanks for keeping up with ChangeLog!

[LeahPrice]

Sorry are you referring to merging the entries in the ChangeLog or another type of merge? I just did a commit to remove the unnecessary ChangeLog entry.

[eddelbuettel]

@LeahPrice You removed the entire ChangeLog entry. That is not what I suggested. I suggested to regroup all entries having the same date under the same date. Anyway....

[LeahPrice]

@eddelbuettel Okay, thanks for clarifying that. When you said the same data and author, I misinterpreted it as the same author and general theme of the update. I removed the extra entry because it was just an error introduced in the previous change.

I've fixed this up now and combined into one.

[eddelbuettel]

Merged. I still think you need entries for your name and email in ~/.gitconfig:

edd@brad:~$ head -3 .gitconfig
[user]
        name = Dirk Eddelbuettel
        email = edd@debian.org
edd@brad:~$

so that your commits are market as yours. Just about every git beginner's tutorial mentions this, you may have skipped it. Might be worth adding (though again I have no idea where to do this on Windows, but lots of other users seem to manage....)

Thanks @eddelbuettel for picking up that it didn't work. Could you please let me know where you found that quoted log that said <unknown> so I can follow it up? The Gitkraken tutorial says it happens automatically - updating my profile didn't work but surely the manual fix will.

git log on the command shell. I use an alias that pretty-prints the log output (and there are many).
