kindly revert

Indian English for "please reply". Recurring nightmare of sysadmins and ITs dealing with Indians. Usually combined with other indianisms such as do the needful, causing a violent urge to facepalm among native English speakers. May also cause workflow disruption when the topic is about a commit.
