  // NOTE: Exception redirects **MUST COME AFTER** pageList redirects above in order

  // otherwise handled by the versionless redirect fallbacks (see lib/all-versions.js).
  //
  // Examples of exceptions:
  // * We deprecate the FPT version of a page, and we want the FPT version to redirect
  //   to a different version that goes against the order in lib/all-versions.js.
  // * We deprecate a non-FPT version of a page, and we want the old version to redirect
  //   to a different version. Because the order in lib/all-versions.js only covers
  //   versionless links (like `/foo`), we need to specify an exception for the old
  //   versioned links (like `/enterprise-cloud@latest/foo`).
  // * We deprecate a version of a page, and instead of falling back to the next
  //   available version, we want to redirect that version to a different page entirely.
  //
  // The advantage of the exception redirects file is that it's encoded in plain
  // text so it's possible to write comments and it's also possible to write 1
  // destination URL once for each N redirect origins.
