There is one in the manual:

http://tinc-vpn.org/documentation-1.1/tinc_4.html#Example-configuration

Node B and C in the example both have a ConnectTo = A in their tinc.conf.
Although it is not mentioned explicitly in the manual, node B and C only need
node A's host config file, not each other's. Node A does need the host config
file of all the nodes that connect to it.
