These are not `backquoted` for <tt>teletype text</tt> typesetting,
like the other hunks in this patch do?

All other things in these three patches I found them reasonable,
except for this hunk.

Thanks.
Thank you so much for catching all my mistakes Junio.

I misread the existing formatting: I mistook the apostrophes for
backticks, and so I incorrectly assumed that the document used inline
code for command and process names. In reality, the rest of the document
uses italics for these elements.

I'm sending a v2 where I correctly uniform command and process names to
use the italic style ASAP.
Sorry but I am confused.  

I am not sure we want <em>emphasis</em> for most of these things;
when we spell names of commands that users would type literally, in
which case we would do the <tt>monospaced</tt>, no?

I may be way off, though.  I'd appreciate our Doc experts to inject
a bit of sanity.

Thanks.
