Why:

on Setting your email address for every repository on your computer step 2 and Setting your email address for a single repository step 3 the link to GitHub-provided noreply email address leads to the same page, even though there is no further information about noreply on that page. The uri fragment#about-no-reply-email indicates that the content was previously there but moved to the separate reference page Your noreply email address.

Closes:

@djbrown Thanks for fixing this! We've been moving around the account and profile stuff, and unfortunately this seems to happen a lot when we place sections that had links into new articles. The bot that's supposed to find redirects just misses these. Really appreciate you catching it and bringing it here.
