With one exception, the synopsis for `git add` consistently lists the
short counterpart alongside the long-form of each option (for instance,
"[--edit | -e]"). The exception is that -A is not mentioned alongside
--all. Fix this inconsistency

An alternative would be to collapse the synopsis to:
'git add' <options> [--] [<pathspec>...]
as has been done for other command documentation, however doing so would
throw away at-a-glance clues about which options are mutually exclusive,
so adding the missing -A to the synopsis seems preferable (for now, at
least).
