Fixed.

Right, removed. I expected that such a setting can be rejected.

Some other lines are referred the source as primary, so I think either way is fine.
But fixed accordingly because the line just above uses the term "publisher".

Right, fixed. I described correctly in the source but omitted in the test.

It's still debatable point. I felt this parameter was introduced to stable branches
and missed checking in the command.
I'm not sure existing examples we could follow, do you know?
Anyway, I updated a patch set, only for master.
