[PATCH] Documentation: let asciidoc align related options

From: Markus Heidelberg <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:45:58
Subsystem: documentation, the rest · Maintainers: Jonathan Corbet, Linus Torvalds

Command line options can share the same paragraph of description, if
they are related or synonymous. In these cases they should be written
among each other, so that asciidoc can format them itself.

This also fixes the description of the -t option in git-mergetool.

	I'm not quite sure about the options in git-diff-files, maybe
	there is a better solution. But at least I think, additional
	words between the options should be avoided, because they add
	confusion.
