Subject: Are the 'How to' documents present as man pages?
Message-ID: <1505538043.21890.4.camel@gmail.com>

I was reading the 'git revert' documentation and found the following
line in it,


    -m parent-number
    --mainline parent-number

        ...

        See the revert-a-faulty-merge How-To[1] for more details.


It says that the 'How-To' is present in the first section of the man
page. I tried to access it to get this,


    $ man 1 revert-a-faulty-merge How-To
    No manual entry for revert-a-faulty-merge in section 1
    No manual entry for How-To in section 1


That made me wonder whether the 'How-To' documents were present as man
pages and were installed when git is installed.

In case they are, how should I be accessing them? In case they aren't
doesn't the above seem misleading?
