typo fix

Mistake gets amended

A typo fix is a correction of a typing error—a small edit that repairs misspellings, transposed letters, or similar mistakes: Just a typo fix, nothing major.

The phrase appears often in software development contexts, where commits and updates are labeled by type: typo fix in the README.
