2018-09-30Documentation: Disable auto_doc_refTom Hiller
According to recommonmark's documentation the enable_auto_doc_ref is deprecated. This is not true, as it's broken with Sphinx 1.6+ commit 12d639873953847de31ec99742b42e50e89ed58c. recommonmark bug report is here: https://github.com/rtfd/recommonmark/issues/73 Instead of using this feature, which doesn't support top level directories in the relative document path anyway, use the TOC tree or inline RST code. Disable auto_doc_ref and document how to reference documents.
