[Emacs-diffs] emacs-25 619f1ed 29/64: Move doc of backup-directory-alist to the Backup node

[Lars Ingebrigtsen]

branch: emacs-25
commit 619f1edec7b14790090c05a2dcddf37253b06bfe
Author: Lars Ingebrigtsen <address@hidden>
Commit: Lars Ingebrigtsen <address@hidden>

    Move doc of backup-directory-alist to the Backup node
    
    * doc/emacs/files.texi (Backup): Move the documentation of
    `backup-directory-alist' here from the "Single or Numbered
    Backups" node, because it doesn't seem to have much to do with
    numbering (bug#18692).
    
    (cherry picked from commit e77b8d84b4161f2cf8720dec2bf44a3e50134398)
