gbranden pushed a commit to branch master
in repository groff.

commit 62d38e4081d4dc807b4824920f8ae811968cd5c3
Author: G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>

    [ms]: Fix Texinfo documentation nits.
    
    * Fix typo.
    * Fix relict text, leftover from earlier edit.
    * Drop item about not using the `PO` register before defining it; this
      same item is not in the parallel sections of "doc/ms.ms" or
      groff_ms(7), and it is a particularization of advice already given
      about the use of registers in subsection/node "Document control
      settings".
