Subject: [iproute PATCH 20/20] man: ip-*.8: drop any reference to generic ip options
Date: Wed, 24 Feb 2016 09:21:33 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1456302093-697-21-git-send-email-phil@nwl.cc> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1456302093-697-1-git-send-email-phil@nwl.cc>
Listing generic 'ip' options in subcommand man pages is redundant and
error-prone, as they won't be kept in sync anyway. Since many other man
pages don't list them either, drop references to them in the remaining
ones.
