Footnotes add a link to a note that will be rendered at the end of a Markdown file.
To make a footnote, you need both a reference tag and a separate line (anywhere in the file) with the note content.
Regardless of the tag names, the relative order of the reference tags determines the rendered numbering.

You can add footnotes to your text as follows.[^1]
A footnote reference tag looks like this:[^1]
[^1]:This is the contents of a footnote.
[^1]:This is my awesome footnote (later in file).
Reference tags can use letters and other characters.[^footnote-note]
[^footnote-note]:Avoid using lowercase `w` or an underscore (`_`) in your tag name until until an [upstream bug](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/issues/24423) is resolved.
