This "+" and the one below render literally so you would want to drop
them. (You're not in any kind of "list" here, so no need for a "list
continuation".)

+Git commands that add repository data, such as `git add` or `git fetch`,
+are optimized for a responsive user experience. These commands do not take
+time to optimize the Git data, since such optimizations scale with the full
+size of the repository while these user commands each perform a relatively
+small action.

+The `git maintenance` command provides flexibility for how to optimize the
+Git repository.
