I think it's better to use bullet lists, e.g.:
If git detects typos and ...
<skip>
... git will try to suggest the correct command or even run the intended 
command. Possible values are:
     - 0 (default): show the suggested command
     - positive number: run the suggested command after specified 
deciseconds (0.1 sec).
     - "immediate": run the suggested command immediately
     - "prompt": show the suggestion and prompt for confirmation to run 
the command
     - "never": don't show any suggestions nor run them
