There are many places in git-config(1) where paragraphs that should
logically come after a list are instead appended to the last item of
the list.  This is a well-documented quirk of AsciiDoc, and can be
mitigated by enclosing the list in an open block:

	--
	* first item
	* last item
	--
	+
	New paragraph after the list.

Fix the issue accordingly.
Makes sense. We've run into problems in the past where adding "--"
doesn't quite work, because we are already inside a "--" (and IIRC the
behavior is not always completely predictable). But I double-checked
these cases, and we are not already in a "--". So we should be good
here.
