Hard to say, because:

> + "List of additional \"markers\" to signal project roots.

> +A marker is either a base file name or a glob pattern for such.

"These will be used" how? This crucial information is sorely missing from
this description. Likewise, how "markers" that are not files are used and
are useful?
> They are most useful when a VC project

How are "markers" useful in this scenario?
> +It can also be used for projects outside of VC repositories.
> +Their behavior will still obey the relevant variables, such as
> +`project-vc-ignores' or `project-vc-name'."
And in this one?
IOW, please describe the main ideas of this approach instead of relying on
use immediately gleaning that from a patch with incomplete documentation.
TIA
