Fortunately it's easy to test:

  asciidoctor - <<\EOF >foo.html
    `HEAD`:::
      names the commit on which you based the changes in the working tree.
    `FETCH_HEAD`:::
      records the branch which you fetched from a remote repository with
      your last `git fetch` invocation.
  EOF

Yes, the format is fine, I'd just use `::` instead of `:::` as that's generally
the first level, but in practical terms doesn't really matter.
