[PATCH] Documentation/git-reflog: remove unneeded \ from \{

["Glen Choo via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

From: Glen Choo <chooglen@google.com>

There are some inconsistencies with how different asciidoc environments
handle different combinations of "\{<>}", e.g. these results were
observed with asciidoc on two different environments:

  | Input     | Output (env A) | Output (env B)   | same/different |
  |-----------+----------------+------------------+----------------|
  | \{<foo>\} | {&lt;foo&gt;}  | \{&lt;foo&gt;}^M | different      |
  | {<foo>}   | {&lt;foo&gt;}  | {&lt;foo&gt;}    | same           |
  | \{<foo>}  | {&lt;foo&gt;}  | \{&lt;foo&gt;}^M | different      |
  | \{foo\}   | {foo}          | {foo}            | same           |
  | \{\}      | {}             | \{}^M            | different      |
  | \{}       | {}             | {}               | same           |
  | {\}       | {}             | {}               | same           |

The only instance of this biting us is "@\{<specifier>\}" in
Documentation/git-reflog.txt; all other combinations of "\{<>}" (e.g. in
Documentation/revisions.txt) seem to render consistently.

Fix this inconsistent rendering by removing the unnecessary "\" in
Documentation/git-reflog.txt.

    I noticed this inconsistency as I was trying to build Git docs with
    Google's internal build system. This string seems particularly
    problematic e.g. you can see unnecessary "\" on
    https://git-scm.com/docs/git-reflog#_description.
    
    I'm not proficient in asciidoc at all, but I suspect that this isn't
    tied to the asciidoc version; I initially observed these differences in
    environments with different versions of asciidoc (9.0.0 and 10.2.0) but
    I can't reproduce this at all on my Mac using different versions of
    asciidoc and asciidoctor from Homebrew. Perhaps the issue is in some
    underlying library?
