node_exporter log output

* [from Gatherer #2] collected metric my_metric gauge:{value:1} has help \"Metric read from /var/metrics/node_exporter/data1.prom, /var/metrics/node_exporter/data2.prom\" but should have \"my custom help text\"

Are you running node_exporter in Docker?

no

What did you do that produced an error?

Create 2 prom files in collector.textfile.directory containing metrics with the same name and different labels.
One prom file contains a corresponding HELP entry, the other does NOT contain one.

What did you expect to see?

all metrics from both files + the one HELP entry in the output (maybe additionally with "Metric read from <files>")

What did you see instead?

only the metrics with the help entry
the metrics from the file without the help entry were omitted in the output
