The documentation is currently in a state of flux due to changes in the way it's written and updated, that's why there are so many "versions". It's supposed to stabilize once darktable 3.6 is out. Please read the Documentation section on https://www.darktable.org/2020/12/darktable-3-4/

    Kofa, thanks for the clarity. There are other links that I've
    found so far.  It appears that these two links go to very similar
    pages: http://www.darktable.org/usermanual/en/ and
    https://darktable-org.github.io/dtdocs/. Within each of these
    pages there are links that lead here -
    http://www.darktable.org/usermanual/en/darktable_user_manual.pdf
    and
    https://darktable-org.github.io/dtdocs/darktable_user_manual.pdf
    respectively.  Then there is this one -
    
https://github.com/darktable-org/darktable/releases/download/release-3.4.0/darktable-usermanual.pdf.
    All are shown as being for v3.4. So how is one to know which of
    these five is the most current, leading edge document, but not the
    bleeding edge (development) version?  One could very easily become
    confused by the plethora of literature?

    There is:

    http://www.darktable.org/usermanual/en/

    and

    https://darktable.gitlab.io/doc/en/index.html

    are they the same? Which one should I use?
    if you looked at them, surely you noticed a difference.  use the one that
    is for the version of darktable you utilize.

    should be very easy to make that choice.
    Since they both say 3.4, and in fact *are* for 3.4, the question was
    valid and the answer was just as wrong as arrogant.
    https://darktable.gitlab.io/doc/en/index.html  is 'old' in the sense
    that it's the updated version of the 'old style' manual. Nevertheless,
    it has been updated for 3.4, but is the last such update. It is
    available in multiple languages.
    https://www.darktable.org/usermanual/en/  is the new version, and that
    is the format that will be used in the future. It has fewer
    screenshots (which tend to change often, and are therefore hard to
    maintain).
    Finally,https://darktable-org.github.io/dtdocs/  is, as far as I know,
    the latest and greatest, updated for the development version (even
    though its version number still says 3.4). It's automatically
    generated fromhttps://github.com/darktable-org/dtdocs
    The latter two are currently available only in English.
