Hello dear dev team,

In the recent devel R-exts manual I cannot find any information about new
option `--ignore-vignettes` to `R CMD check`. I would expect it to be
mentioned somewhere in "1.4.2 Non-Sweave vignettes".


Which is a subsection of §1.4 'Writing package vignettes', so your 
expectations are misplaced: it is nothing to do with *writing*.



Checked on https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-devel/R-exts.html and
https://github.com/wch/r-source/blob/trunk/doc/manual/R-exts.texi


Where does it say that all the possible arguments to 'check' are 
documented in the manual?  It says otherwise in §1.3.1:


'Use R CMD check --help to obtain more information about the usage of 
the R package checker.  A subset of the checking steps can be selected 
by adding command-line options.'


R CMD check --help includes

  --ignore-vignettesskip all tests on vignettes

[This is really intended for those doing automated checking, not end users.]
