Summary of changes

docs.json redirects /mpg/overview/ to /mpg, but mpg/overview is still in the Managed Postgres nav. Readers can't reach the page (the redirect wins), yet Mintlify still lists docs.fly.io/mpg/overview in its sitemap, so Google sees a sitemap URL that 308s. This removes the page and its nav entry and keeps the redirect.

Found by the weekly technical SEO crawl. The fly.io half of the same finding is superfly/landing#1261.

Notes

The overview had "Creating", "Connecting" and "Using flyctl" sections that mpg/index doesn't. Nobody has been able to see them since the redirect went in, and mpg/create-and-connect covers the same ground. If any of it should survive, it belongs on that page.

flyctl/cmd/fly_postgres.mdx still mentions fly.io/docs/mpg/overview/. That page is generated from flyctl, so I left it.

/mpg/overview/ already redirects to /mpg, so the page can't be reached,
but because it's still in the nav Mintlify lists docs.fly.io/mpg/overview
in its sitemap. That's a sitemap URL that 308s. The redirect stays.

Good catch on mpg/overview. I'd already folded the same removal into #2503, which moves MPG from /mpg to /postgres, so this patch won't apply once that lands.

The sitemap point is better than my reasoning, though. Can you close this one and I'll credit it in mine?
