Describe the bug:

Improper English prose.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Go to:

https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Tools-Debugging-with-Git

  1. 'Scroll down to:

first paragraph and first setence.

  1. See error

This is bad English grammar.

In addition to being primarily for version control, Git also provides a couple commands to help you debug your source code projects.

Expected behavior:

Missing of, for correct grammar.

"a couple commands" should be "a couple of commands" - the preposition "of" is needed after "couple"

Correction

In addition to being primarily for version control, Git also provides a couple **of **commands to help you debug your source code projects.
