[PATCH 8/9] doc: convert git-mergetool options to new synopsis style

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: =?UTF-8?q?Jean-No=C3=ABl=20Avila?= <jn.avila@xxxxxxx>

- Use _<placeholder>_ instead of <placeholder> in the description
- Use `backticks` for keywords and more complex option
descriptions. The new rendering engine will apply synopsis rules to
these spans.
