Is this about updating oVirt docs based on what we have documented downstream? Downstream we had to target 4.4.2 with incremental backup updates due to a large number of 4.4.1 priorities. https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/incremental-backup-guide/ doesn't even seem to be linked from https://www.ovirt.org/documentation -- maybe we should just unpublish it?
