From: Jean-Noël Avila Date: Sun, 25 May 2025 20:27:08 +0000 (+0000) Subject: doc: convert git-mergetool options to new synopsis style X-Git-Tag: v2.50.0-rc1~8^2~1 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d30c5cc45921fcb8e185ec7a0b69d9b474a669a3;p=thirdparty%2Fgit.git doc: convert git-mergetool options to new synopsis style - Use __ instead of in the description - Use `backticks` for keywords and more complex option descriptions. The new rendering engine will apply synopsis rules to these spans.
