Subject: 27.1; Inconsistency between Emacs and Elisp manuals
Date: Sun, 18 Oct 2020 16:32:20 +0200

ELisp manual says:
" If this second dir-locals file is present, then that is loaded instead of
 ‘.dir-locals.el’."

Emacs manual says:
" You can also use ‘.dir-locals-2.el’; if found, Emacs loads it in
addition to ‘.dir-locals.el’."
