Documentation/git-reflog: Fix formatting of command lists
so that the list of examples is formatted in the same way as for

blocks from url.txt) doesn't look like misformatted, but is clarified by

In urls.txt (which is included from git-{clone,fetch,push}.txt)
several item lists are surrounded by example block markers. This is
problematic for two reasons:
- None of these lists are example lists, so they should not be marked as
such semantically.
- The html output looks weird (bulleted list with left sidebar).
Therefore, remove the example block markers. Output by the man backend
is unaffected.

Ever since the "See linkgit:git-config[1]..." paragraph was added to the
description for --untracked-files (d6293d1), the paragraphs for the
following options were indented at the same level as the "See
linkgit:git-config[1]" paragraph. This problem showed up in the
manpages, but not in the HTML documentation.
While this does fix the alignment of the options following
--untracked-files in the manpage, the "See linkgit..." portion of the
description does not retain its previous indentation level in the
manpages, or HTML documentation.

It is misleading to say that we pull refs from $GIT_DIR/refs/*, because we
may also consult the packed refs mechanism. These days we tend to treat
the "refs hierarchy" as more of an abstract namespace that happens to be
represented as $GIT_DIR/refs. At best, this is a minor inaccuracy, but at
worst it can confuse users who then look in $GIT_DIR/refs and find that it
is missing some of the refs they expected to see.
This patch drops most uses of "$GIT_DIR/refs/*", changing them into just
"refs/*", under the assumption that users can handle the concept of an
abstract refs namespace. There are a few things to note:
- most cases just dropped the $GIT_DIR/ portion. But for cases where
that left _just_ the word "refs", I changed it to "refs/" to help
indicate that it was a hierarchy. I didn't do the same for longer
paths (e.g., "refs/heads" remained, instead of becoming
"refs/heads/").
- in some cases, no change was made, as the text was explicitly about
unpacked refs (e.g., the discussion in git-pack-refs).
- In some cases it made sense instead to note the existence of packed
refs (e.g., in check-ref-format and rev-parse).

Now that fast-import is creating packs with index version 2, there is
no point limiting the pack size by default. A pack split will still
happen if off_t is not sufficiently large to hold large offsets.
While updating the doc, let's remove the "packfiles fit on CDs"
suggestion. Pack files created by fast-import are still suboptimal and
a 'git repack -a -f -d' or even 'git gc --aggressive' would be a pretty
good idea before considering storage on CDs.
