URL: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/ac1dc1336ad76d719445d706654ca0ec4ff5557c DIFF: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/ac1dc1336ad76d719445d706654ca0ec4ff5557c.diff LOG: [Docs] Correct description of lldbinit behavior Jim pointed out that "every time somebody has touched the documentation on startup files they have stated that we source the application one and then the global one, even though in actual fact we’ve never done that." Indeed, when we read the application specific .lldbinit file, the global one is not read. This patch updates the man page to reflect that.
