I am writing to follow up on this old bug report about the lack of documentation for the bash built-ins 'true' and 'false'. I agree with the previous arguments on why these built-ins should be documented in 'info bash', and I would like to add two more reasons:
- The commands 'true' and 'false' that are documented in 'info coreutils' are different from the bash built-ins with the same names, so documenting them in 'info bash' wouldn't count as duplication. - The built-ins 'true' and 'false' are the only ones that are missing from ‘info bash’, which makes them inaccessible to the commands 'info bash true' and 'info bash false'. Thanks for your attention.
