gbranden pushed a commit to branch master
in repository groff.

commit 190ec11a6cafda8ee854b1d7538fa1eaf933d0f3
Author: G. Branden Robinson <address@hidden>
Date:   Fri Nov 9 12:37:20 2018 -0500

    man pages: Kill comment regarding preprocessor-fu.
    
        * man/groff_diff.7.man:
        * man/groff_out.5.man:
        * src/devices/grolbp/grolbp.1.man:
        Delete comment explaining what the preprocessor hint is for.  We
        document this in groff_man(7), but more importantly, apparently
        there are very weak and easily confused mandb-style index
        generators out there, so being conservative with the beginnings
        of man pages seems wise.  Most significantly in my view, we have
        13 other man pages in the tree that issue a preprocessor hint
        but lack such a comment.  Consistency wins.
