    doc: declare what type of comments we support in pacman.conf · 41cbea29
    Eli Schwartz authored Jul 18, 2018 and Allan McRae's avatar Allan McRae committed Jul 25, 2018
    Ini-style configuration formats are all over the place. So are we, for
    that matter, as we switched how we treated middle-of-line comments in
    commit 8a19c4a7
    
     -- namely, they're not
    comments anymore. This is surprising to users, who report bugs because
    it used to work, but what's more surprising is that the only
    "documentation" for the type of comments users can be expected to use,
    is by guessing from our example pacman.conf and maybe discovering
    unreliable easter eggs.
    
    Fixes FS#58809
