Martin von Zweigbergk 7791a1d9b9 Documentation: use [verse] for SYNOPSIS sections
The SYNOPSIS sections of most commands that span several lines already
use [verse] to retain line breaks. Most commands that don't span
several lines seem not to use [verse]. In the HTML output, [verse]
does not only preserve line breaks, but also makes the section
indented, which causes a slight inconsistency between commands that
use [verse] and those that don't. Use [verse] in all SYNOPSIS sections
for consistency.

Also remove the blank lines from git-fetch.txt and git-rebase.txt to
align with the other man pages. In the case of git-rebase.txt, which
already uses [verse], the blank line makes the [verse] not apply to
the last line, so removing the blank line also makes the formatting
within the document more consistent.

While at it, add single quotes to 'git cvsimport' for consistency with
other commands.

git-shell(1)
============
NAME
----
git-shell - Restricted login shell for Git-only SSH access
SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
'git shell' [-c <command> <argument>]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
A login shell for SSH accounts to provide restricted Git access. When
'-c' is given, the program executes <command> non-interactively;
<command> can be one of 'git receive-pack', 'git upload-pack', 'git
upload-archive', 'cvs server', or a command in COMMAND_DIR. The shell
is started in interactive mode when no arguments are given; in this
case, COMMAND_DIR must exist, and any of the executables in it can be
invoked.
'cvs server' is a special command which executes git-cvsserver.
COMMAND_DIR is the path "$HOME/git-shell-commands". The user must have
read and execute permissions to the directory in order to execute the
programs in it. The programs are executed with a cwd of $HOME, and
<argument> is parsed as a command-line string.
