[PATCH] Documentation: typofix --column description

From: Junio C Hamano <hidden>
Date: 2021-02-20 02:45:10

f4ed0af6 (Merge branch 'nd/columns', 2012-05-03) brought in three
cut-and-pasted copies of malformatted descriptions.  Let's fix them
all the same way by marking the configuration variable names up as
monospace just like the command line option `--column` is typeset.

While we are at it, correct a missing space after the full stop that
ends the sentence.
