Subject: bug#56512: gnu.org does not redirect http to https

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Thank you for the quick replies. Ok I will email the GNU project with
regard to the lack of a redirect.

I think we should change the man doc at least in all coreutils to use https
in the links instead of http.

Can we repurpose this ticket for that work or should we create a separate
ticket to update the man docs?
