Users interested in the fetch.negotiationAlgorithm variable added in
42cc7485a2 ("negotiator/skipping: skip commits during fetch",
2018-07-16) are probably interested in the related --negotiation-tip
option added in 3390e42adb ("fetch-pack: support negotiation tip
whitelist", 2018-07-02).

Change the documentation for those two to reference one another to
point readers in the right direction.
