Yeah, it doesn’t matter much.  I try to put “less important” fields
towards the bottom when documenting, but perhaps the relative
importance of these fields wasn’t all that clear.  ;-)

Thanks,

Hi Guix,

This patch adds the missing 'auto-start?' field to the documentation of
'shepherd-service'.

I have also noticed that the 'documentation' field is not in the same
position as it is in the source code (the remaining fields are in the
right order).  I did not change this as I was not sure whether it was
done on purpose.

Regards,

Diego
