In packaging 2.20 for Debian, the tooling noticed some possible spelling errors.

The entry:

I: fossil: spelling-error-in-binary ment meant [usr/bin/fossil]

Apparently comes from this line of code:

  }else if( nBuf>4 && 0==memcmp("ment", &aBuf[nBuf-4], 4) ){
                                 ^^^^--- problem here

In other words, that warning is not easily fixable. All of the other harmless warnings have now been addressed. The changes will be in the next release.

Yeah, that tool is indeed prone to false positives. There's per-package list of false hits to silence them, so I'll add that particular warning.

How to show it as it's design for right place.

One can't help but wonder how you managed to sign up for an account, old bot-my-lad.

The account is likely to disappear unless its operator disproves its bot-like "intelligence" soon.
