My asciidoc (7.1.2 and 8.2.1) generates an empty refsynopsisdiv from
this.  xmlto refuses to convert this into anything else:

This breaks the build process for the documentation.  I could not find
out how to fix this.  Probably just needs the right quoting for the
dot at the beginning of the line.

Sorry, I should have caught this much earlier, as already knew
about this issue when I did gitattributes(5).

As it seems to be customary not to even say 'dot' at the
beginning for man(5) section (existing examples I found are
netrc, postgresrc, procmailrc, ...), I think the best fix is
just to do s/\.gitmodules/gitmodules/ there.
