The original documentation from 7b5cf8be18 (vimdiff: add tool
documentation, 2022-03-30) mistakenly described the marker as an
asterisk, which is the character "*". The code and examples have always
looked for an arobase ("@").

 When `MERGED` is not present in the layout, you must "mark" one of the
-buffers with an asterisk. That will become the buffer you need to edit and
+buffers with an arobase (`@`). That will become the buffer you need to edit and
 save after resolving the conflicts.
