+When multiple tools are configured to affect a file, they execute in an order
+defined by the :priority suboption. The priority suboption has a default value
+of zero for each tool. Tools are executed in order of descending priority. The
+execution order of tools with equal priority is unspecified. For example, you
+could use the 'sort' and 'head' utilities to keep only the 10 smallest numbers
+in a text file by ensuring that 'sort' runs before 'head'::
+
+  [fix]
+  sort:command = sort --numeric-sort
+  head:command = head --lines=10
+  sort:pattern = numbers.txt
+  head:pattern = numbers.txt
+  sort:priority = 2
+  head:priority = 1
+
+To account for changes made by each tool, the line numbers used for incremental
+formatting are recomputed before executing the next tool. So, each tool may see
+different values for the arguments added by the :linerange suboption.
