timesyncd.conf new option

Hi everyone

Hope you are doing fine! This is a (minor?) documentation topic.

Just realized with the systemd version 250 update, that timesyncd.conf got a new option:

* A new setting SaveIntervalSec= has been added to systemd-timesyncd,
          which may be used to automatically save the current system time to
          disk in regular intervals. This is useful to maintain a roughly
          monotonic clock even without RTC hardware and with some robustness
          against abnormal system shutdown.

However, it is not included into the man (yet): TIMESYNCD.CONF(5)

Let me know, if I can help/contribute.

Cheers

That man page is for version 249. Wait for the next update: https://man.archlinux.org/#LAST_UPDATES
