  1. Reserve "/go/" URL prefix for redirect pages

    This page is used to reserve the "/go/" URL/path for redirecting purposes. This
    page is not published, and should not be visible on the documentation website.
    
    Use the `/go/` URL prefix to provide "vanity" URLs linking to the documentation.
    These URLs can be used in (for example) the `docker` CLI to provide a short,
    permanent link to refer to a topic in the documentation.
    
    Having a fixed `/go/` URL allows you to redirect the URL to the most current
    location in the documentation for a given topic, which may evolve over time.
    
    For example, the `docker` CLI can output `https://docs.docker.com/go/some-topic`
    in its help output, which can be redirected to elsewhere in the documentation,
    using the `redirect_from` metadata field in the target page.
