Wording change: "login" -> "log in" and "logout" -> "log out" #2218

brianharvey commented 6 years ago

While editing BJC text we had a discussion about "log in to" vs. "log into" (the former seems to be correct, although not quite everyone on the web agrees), and this led me to notice that the cloud menu items include "login..." and "logout username," which everyone agrees is wrong. ("Login" and "logout" are nouns; the verb forms are "log in" and "log out.")

While I agree that "log into" is totally wrong, "login" and "logout" are valid verbs.

I think I still prefer the space because it's consistent with "sign in" and "sign up"
