doc: git-config: escape erroneous highlight markup

Paired octothorpes are used in AsciiDoc to mark highlighted text,
<mark> being the equivalent HTML tag.  To use the symbol as a literal
character, it can be escaped with backticks.

Do so in git-config.adoc.

While at it, tweak the text slightly to make it scan better.
