Stephan Beyer 3240240ff4 Docs: Use "-l::\n--long\n" format in OPTIONS sections
The OPTIONS section of a documentation file contains a list
of the options a git command accepts.

Currently there are several variants to describe the case that
different options (almost) do the same in the OPTIONS section.

Some are:

 -f, --foo::
 -f|--foo::
 -f | --foo::

But AsciiDoc has the special form:

 -f::
 --foo::

This patch applies this form to the documentation of the whole git suite,
and removes useless em-dash prevention, so \--foo becomes --foo.

git-fmt-merge-msg(1)
====================
NAME
----
git-fmt-merge-msg - Produce a merge commit message
SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
git-fmt-merge-msg [--log | --no-log] <$GIT_DIR/FETCH_HEAD
git-fmt-merge-msg [--log | --no-log] -F <file>
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Takes the list of merged objects on stdin and produces a suitable
commit message to be used for the merge commit, usually to be
passed as the '<merge-message>' argument of `git-merge`.
This script is intended mostly for internal use by scripts
automatically invoking `git-merge`.
OPTIONS
-------
--log::
In addition to branch names, populate the log message with
one-line descriptions from the actual commits that are being
merged.
--no-log::
Do not list one-line descriptions from the actual commits being
merged.
--summary::
--no-summary::
Synonyms to --log and --no-log; these are deprecated and will be
removed in the future.
-F <file>::
--file <file>::
Take the list of merged objects from <file> instead of
stdin.
CONFIGURATION
-------------
merge.log::
Whether to include summaries of merged commits in newly
merge commit messages. False by default.
merge.summary::
Synonym to `merge.log`; this is deprecated and will be removed in
the future.
