Stephan Beyer 3240240ff4 Docs: Use "-l::\n--long\n" format in OPTIONS sections
The OPTIONS section of a documentation file contains a list
of the options a git command accepts.

Currently there are several variants to describe the case that
different options (almost) do the same in the OPTIONS section.

Some are:

 -f, --foo::
 -f|--foo::
 -f | --foo::

But AsciiDoc has the special form:

 -f::
 --foo::

This patch applies this form to the documentation of the whole git suite,
and removes useless em-dash prevention, so \--foo becomes --foo.

git-instaweb(1)
===============
NAME
----
git-instaweb - Instantly browse your working repository in gitweb
SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
'git-instaweb' [--local] [--httpd=<httpd>] [--port=<port>]
[--browser=<browser>]
'git-instaweb' [--start] [--stop] [--restart]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
A simple script to setup gitweb and a web server for browsing the local
repository.
OPTIONS
-------
-l::
--local::
Only bind the web server to the local IP (127.0.0.1).
-d::
--httpd::
The HTTP daemon command-line that will be executed.
Command-line options may be specified here, and the
configuration file will be added at the end of the command-line.
Currently lighttpd, apache2 and webrick are supported.
(Default: lighttpd)
-m::
--module-path::
The module path (only needed if httpd is Apache).
(Default: /usr/lib/apache2/modules)
-p::
--port::
The port number to bind the httpd to. (Default: 1234)
-b::
--browser::
The web browser that should be used to view the gitweb
page. This will be passed to the 'git-web--browse' helper
script along with the URL of the gitweb instance. See
linkgit:git-web--browse[1] for more information about this. If
the script fails, the URL will be printed to stdout.
--start::
Start the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate
any of the configuration files for spawning a new instance.
--stop::
Stop the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate
any of the configuration files for spawning a new instance,
nor does it close the browser.
--restart::
Restart the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate
any of the configuration files for spawning a new instance.
CONFIGURATION
-------------
You may specify configuration in your .git/config
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[instaweb]
local = true
httpd = apache2 -f
port = 4321
browser = konqueror
modulepath = /usr/lib/apache2/modules
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
If the configuration variable 'instaweb.browser' is not set,
'web.browser' will be used instead if it is defined. See
linkgit:git-web--browse[1] for more information about this.
