Research direction
Investigate the comment in https://github.com/urfave/cli/pull/997#issuecomment 568153073 to understand the problem. Review the documentation tests in the repository, likely found in a docs or test directory. Determine how tests are currently configured and why they do not run against the current branch code. Fix the test script or configuration to ensure they use the local code.
