Not, probably not worth a reroll: it would have been nice to point out
that this is in git-config(1). E.g. something like this:

    doc: fix conjoined maintenance strategies in git-config(1)

    Fix conjoined bullet items for the maintennace strategies in
    git-config(1).

Ah, indeed. I can confirm that this is misrendered when looking at
git-config(1), and with your patch it indeed renders correctly. Thanks
for this simple and obvious fix!

I wonder if this gives different results for asciidoc and asciidoctor.

• asciidoctor: seems that the bullet list is correct with or without
  this change (no change)
• asciidoc: needs this change

Note that I’ve made enough asciidoc/tor mistakes so I’m not that
reliable of a witness.

I also idly wonder why git-scm renders this bullet list as it ought
to. This hunk has not been modified for a while. The second paragraph
which ostensibly made it conjoined was d9bccf2e (builtin/maintenance:
introduce "geometric" strategy, 2025-10-24).

I'll mention git-config(1) in v2 if maintainers request a new revision
(though I agree that a patch this simple probably doesn't need a
reroll). Otherwise, I invite the committer to make editorial changes to
the commit message as they see fit.

Thanks for the review! It's a minor change, but this is my first patch
to the git project, so I appreciate your time and expertise.

Cheers!
