branch: emacs-27
commit 568a560fceda2afd8e0c91e3176e81718bfa5ead
Author: Stefan Kangas <address@hidden>
Commit: Stefan Kangas <address@hidden>

    Improve doc string of 'newline'
    
    * lisp/simple.el (newline): Doc fix.  Move 'use-hard-newlines' down,
    since it's less important than the meaning of the prefix argument, and
    is less frequently used than 'electric-indent-mode' and
    'auto-fill-mode'.  Change the wording to no longer call it an
    option.
