This is a good point, the documentation must be in the installer, not a
separate file. For example Git installer for MS Windows list three options
how to install git and other command line tools with an explanation. The
problem is that only part of the users will read it and only part of them
will understand all the consequences (I mean, I was not sure when I saw
installing Git installation for the first time).
