I don't understand why only docs have s. Have you references/links ?

Hey!
Thank you for the question @kosssi !
Actually, I don't know if there's a proper way in English to say that.

But if you're right we need to update the documentation for sure!
@bcoe you are an English native speaker, what do you think about it?

As a native speaker, I find docs to be the more natural shorthand.

In English, doc is short for document, both noun and verb. To help with disambiguation the shorthand docs is typically used for documentation. It doesn't imply a plurality of changes like it would do with fix or feat, it implies the area the change is affecting.

🇮🇪He's from Ireland, he's right 😂

@kosssi is it fine for you the explanation or you do think it may be still discussed?
