Re: [PATCH 5/6] blame-options.txt: place each -L option variation on its own line

Eric Sunshine [off-list ref] writes:

Standard practice in Git documentation is for each variation of an
option (such as: -p / --porcelain) to be placed on its own line in the
OPTIONS table. The -L option does not follow suit. It cuddles
"-L <start>,<end>" and "-L :<regex>", separated by a comma. This is
inconsistent and potentially confusing since the comma separating them
is typeset the same as the comma in "<start>,<end>". Fix this by placing
each variation on its own line.

Ok, but why not fix them all in one go?

Edited to remove the false positives:

$ git grep -n '^.*,.*::$' Documentation/*.txt
Documentation/blame-options.txt:12:-L <start>,<end>, -L :<regex>::
Documentation/config.txt:1252:gitcvs.dbuser, gitcvs.dbpass::
