commit    3dcc7ceec034788b6ef89f90eb1be869e0c40a05
Author:   Bruce Momjian <bruce@momjian.us>

First released in: 11.0, 10.2

    doc:  mention datadir locations are actually config locations
    
    Technically, pg_upgrade's --old-datadir and --new-datadir are
    configuration directories, not necessarily data directories.  This is
    reflected in the 'postgres' manual page, so do the same for pg_upgrade.
