Typing M-x info Emacs RET m VC RET doesn't give access to the VC manual. You have to do M-x info Emacs RET m Vers RET I'm pretty sure I'm not alone in thinking of VC as VC, not as "Version Control".

TAB gives me a large list of completions, which reminds me to > type « Version Control » instead. It bites me every time. There are a few items in the list that begin with "VC". > Eli, is it possible to add a synonym to a menu entry in Info? No. In any case, the usual recommended way of looking up something in an Info manual is by using Info-index ('i'), not by using menus. So I just added an index entry to the manual; now you can type "i VC RET" (with "VC" in upper-case) and get yourself landed where you wanted. If this is sufficient, we can close this bug report. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread
