Subject: [PATCH 2/4] docs/config: give a relative includeIf example
Date: Thu, 11 May 2017 05:11:06 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170511091106.cpk5emqtvp4cdeoi@sigill.intra.peff.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170511090905.tvkb4bk2ddjzjip4@sigill.intra.peff.net>

The changes in the previous commit hopefully clarify that
the evaluation of an include "path" variable is the same no
matter if it's in a conditional section or not. But since
this question came up on the list, let's add an example that
makes it obvious.
